Need Info on Remington 40-XS

[coyotehunter223]

Let's try again as I didn't realize my supporters status hadn't gone through. I'm trying to find when this rifle was made and a value on it. It's from the Remington Custom Shop and the original case is marked as a 40-XS Rifle Only. It appears to be one of the early Remington 40-XS Tactical System 308 rifles but I can't find anything on value. It's got a McMillan stock and a 24 Inch stainless HB that is factory threaded with a factory muzzle brake. I've been able to find a couple of pictures of this rifle in 338 Lapua but nothing in 308. Any help on positive identification and a value would be appreciated. I apologize for the post earlier and honestly thought my supporter payment had went through. Thanks in advance.

Cool rifle. Might be able to call the custom shop and ask? Or did they close that down?

 

[coyotehunter223]

It's closed. Emailed them today and the new owners were giving all the old records.

Action looks to be clip slotted too. A pic from above would show that better.

Interesting rifle, that'd be a keeper for me.

 

[coyotehunter223]

It is clip slotted.

If there are not 2 letters on the left side of the barrel, probably between 1999 and 2001. https://ammoterra.com/product/remington-40-xs-tactical. Contact them maybe they can tell you something.

Hey, is this thread dead? Have you found out more about your rifle? I have the same rifle, there's a label on the case says R&D Rm, so I suspected that it was a "shop rifle" before Remington went bankrupt. It would be nice if a former Remington employee could shed some light on it.

Mine didn't come with a soft case like yours, it had foam in the case and a Remington gun sock. The guy saved all the tags and cards from all the stuff that he put on the rifle. The scope was gone though.

If you google Remington 40-XS, there are a few articles pop up. stating what the rifle would come with, I am sure you have read that, one article is from the DOJ. I don't think Remington built a lot of them back in the days, mine is a 308 with no muzzle brake like yours, came with a Turner sling, bipod, and Badger scope mount, the label called it a "system". I have a Remington Defense catalog with this rifle in it, when I have time, I'll post the picture.

Mine does have a muzzle brake. It did come with the Badger scope base. I read DOJ article. Wish there was some way to place a value on it.
