It’s about time Remington came out with an adjustable trigger. I look forward to hearing reports on the trigger after people get to use it.
waiting to see if i can get this in canada.
We can’t even get it in the US yet. It is in production but has not hit the distributors yet. Can’t wait to shoot it!
Any body got an idea on this things accuracy at long distance?
I’m between getting a XHR or a sendero SF II and am wonderingwhich ones gonna give me better groups at long range?
I am looking for a lighter rifle to carry. I have the Sendero but packing that thing in the Colorado mountains is too much. I am concerned about the kick of the 7mm RUM in a lighter rifle though. Has anyone heard about the accuracy of thenew design????
does any one know what calibers it will be available in?
Hi, to all those who are considering this rifle…. it is available in Canada and is very light. This rifle has some really great qualities and I really like the feel weight and balance of this rifle… however I feel as though the stock is less than quality and needs to be more refined, I do understand that the stock can be changed out, and triggers can be adjusted (always has been able to with a model 700). I am very pleased with my purchase and plan to change out the stock to a little nicer sendero style.
I have a XHR in 7mm Ultra Mag. It is a great rifle. Not real bad recoil. I have shot about 25 rounds through it and so far the Rem. 150 grain is the best load. 3/4 inch 3 shot group 100 yards.
Yea i just picked up the .300 win mag, and i live in canada. Great for long distances rifle. The awsome looking triangle barrel definetly stands out from the rest. I put a Tactical Turret scope on it and hit the target no problem from 500 yrds. Love the stock on it, and the Super cell reciol pad! Waited a year to get it in, finally got it, it was worth the wait!
I just bought the XHR in the 300 win mag I love everything about it… I own a lot of guns and this one is by far none my favorite one!
I just took delivery of my new XHR 7mm um, mounted with leopold 6.5-20 var3 long range scope with adj turret. Going Friday to shoot and cant wait. I love the balance and feel of the rifle. I am used to mule deer hunting in the west, and have adjusted to south Texas White tails, but the gun must feel good in either situation.
I recently purchased an XHR in 25-06. Love the feel of the gun. It shoots less than 3/4 inch groups at 100 yds. cold but I am having a problem once it warms up. Shooting one shot per minute after 3 shots it begins to walk and will move 6 inches by about the eighth shot. I am accustomed to hot barrel shot placement movement but this seems excessive.
