Default Rem 700 ADL 6mm

I found a 700 ADL in 6mm Rem for $399. It's used, but in great condition with a warranty from the gun shop. I researched this gun on the web and couldn't find anything. The stock has been cut down to just under 12" LOP and I thought it would be perfect for my 11 year old. Anyone know if ammo is readily available, how good of a cartridge is this for deer and hog, and if this sounds like a good price? Hurry, I got mustbuygun fever!!

it's an excellent round for deer. It's fine for the youngster too...if the stock fits him that's a plus as well.

IMO that's an ok and not a great buy in a used gun. Soon the youngster will want a full length stock and that will run you a couple "C" notes.

I'd like to see that gun for $100 less.

I have the 6mm rem it would be a great gun for him to hunt with but I will agree with Vapor the price is a little high If you can wait a little while Wal-mart will order one for you cheaper than that and it will be new. I would offer $325 or $350 for it. There is some ammo but not many choices but fot deer and hog the rounds are there

If I’m not mistaken the only 6 mm that Remington offers is the 700VLS model and that has a 26” heavy barrel and that is if you're talking about a Remington rifle.

Yeah, these guys are right. I bought my adl in 30-06 for 319 brand new. There were 243's as well for the same price. 243 is close enought to 6mm in my book. You might consider it. Sportmens wharehouse isrunning this deal. EJ

I used a 6MM Rem for quite a few years for deer. I loaded the 100 grain Hornady RN bullets and it worked well. I would also suggest moving up a notch or two to the 260 or 7MM-08, More effective and not much more recoil.

James, I think you mean, moving down?
Not you too Reb. Tell us you haven't been blinded by the blazing speed of the 243.
