Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Remington 40-X is one of the company’s most respected precision rifles, developed by Remington’s Custom Shop in 1955 as a purpose-built target and benchrest platform. Designed as the premium, hand-fitted counterpart to the Model 700/722 family, the 40-X featured carefully selected barrels, blueprinted actions, and match-grade triggers intended to deliver competition-level accuracy straight from the factory. Offered in a wide range of centerfire and rimfire configurations—including heavy-barrel varmint rifles, prone rifles, and single-shot target actions—the 40-X quickly earned a reputation for exceptional consistency. Its rigid receiver, high-quality barrels, and custom bedding made it a top choice among competitive shooters, law-enforcement marksmen, and departments that required predictable, repeatable performance. Production continued for decades, with models evolving through different stock styles, barrel contours, and calibers, eventually becoming synonymous with Remington’s highest standard of precision. Many rifles were built to order, meaning variations are numerous and often unique to the buyer’s specifications. The 40-X ultimately served as a foundation for later precision developments, including rifles used in early sniper and police marksman programs. Today, original 40-X rifles—especially those in uncommon calibers or specialized configurations—are highly valued by collectors for their craftsmanship, Custom Shop provenance, and long-standing reputation for competition-grade accuracy.
