You might have missed it. They just started making this gun last year, as part of a multi year limited edition gun. Last year it was made to commemorate the 30-06, and it was only chambered in the 30-06. This year, they have it to commemorate the 17 Fireball, but are chambering the gun in 270., 7mag, etc. If you purchase it in the 17 fireball, it comes with a engraved floor plate. However, I e-mail Remington to make sure that the other guns don't have the 17 Fireball engraving - and they don't. Very good looking gun that comes with the new X-Mark trigger.

The M-70 will be back in 08. Haven't seen anything on the 94 or 1300.

Good job, Pyro!

 

From the target pics you sent me with the vertical stringing, it looked to me like it was all bedding-related as well.  I would go ahead and bed the action behind the recoil lug and at the tang at this point and you should be good to go!

 

Good thing you were patient and didn't sell it!
