![]() Taking 30-06 (probably the best overall hunting caliber), the Model 783 is a bolt-action rifle. In fact, the magazine retention and release was better than most comparable rifles. I had no issues with the magazine falling out or not seating correctly. The magazine itself loaded quickly and naturally into the receiver. The magazine was easy to load, and I encountered no issues with cartridges feeding into the chamber. The magazine is partially plastic, partially steel, with the metal parts forming the most important parts of the magazine. The Model 783 comes with a detachable box magazine that holds four rounds. ![]() Overall, Remington did a great job with this trigger. On the other hand, the trigger guard was plastic (not as sturdy) and oddly shaped (trapezoidal). ![]() The trigger itself broke crisply and felt light, rather than the heavy, gritty feel many cheap hunting or survival rifles have. ![]() I wasn’t able to get my trigger that light (only 3 pounds, 12 ounces), but the ability to adjust the trigger is impressive for a rifle at this price. The Model 783 ships with a trigger pull weight of 5.5 pounds, but with the adjustable CrossFire trigger system, that weight can be reduced (according to Remington) to only 2.5 pounds. ![]()
