RE: Remingtons.
Lets just hope whatever they offer...they will make it available in mor than the usual cookie cutter calibers. It sure would be nice to see a 6.5x55 or even a 260 in a 700. I wonder if anyone will ever chanber a 284 Winchester again?? Thats a sweet looking round from the ballistics tables.

Yes Remington is building a new stainless. It will be available with a stock in Mossy Oak Breakup. They likewise ARE adding the 270 and 300 WSMs too the 700 lineup. Yes they ARE dropping their SAUMs. The big Ultras will still be offered but gone are the shorties. I dont know about ammo, but believe the will continue to offer SAUM ammo, but probably in its limited range of offerings like presently (which is why I think they never caught on as well).
Rem. is changing ALOT of things this year. The ADL as we know it is gone. Remington is leaving the 710 to fill the need for a cheaper priced rifle. The ADLs replacement will be two rifles called the SPS (Special Purpose like in the shotgun line). They will be priced in the mid $300-$400 range and will be available in a detachable boxed magazine also including the WSMs. At least for next season these guns will be hard to get, BACKORDER city. A WSM in a 700 detach box mag for under $400? Remington FINALLY saw the light!!!
Winch gonna have a heck of a time sellin 70 Shadows after these catch up,
