Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Remington Matchmaster 513-T is a classic American bolt-action rimfire target rifle produced by Remington Arms from approximately 1940 to 1968, and it stands as one of the most respected mid-tier smallbore competition rifles of its era. Chambered in .22 Long Rifle and fed from a detachable box magazine—typically holding six rounds—the 513-T was purpose-built for accuracy and training, featuring a heavy 27-inch target barrel that is often described as semi-floating, contributing to excellent consistency and precision. The rifle is equipped with high-quality target sights, most commonly a Redfield 75 rear aperture sight paired with a globe front sight, and is mounted in a walnut stock with a wide beavertail fore-end and sling swivel provisions, allowing for stable shooting positions in formal competition settings. One of its standout features is the adjustable Matchmaster trigger, which allows shooters to fine-tune pull weight and overtravel for a crisp, controlled break—an important factor in precision shooting. Although it was considered “second-tier” behind Remington’s more expensive Model 37 Rangemaster, the 513-T earned a reputation for delivering comparable accuracy at a more accessible price point, with period reports and modern testing alike showing it capable of extremely tight groupings, even rivaling higher-end rifles.

During World War II, thousands were produced under government contract and used by the U.S. Army, ROTC units, and civilian training programs, often marked “U.S. PROPERTY,” adding historical significance to certain examples. With total production estimated at around 137,000 rifles, the 513-T is not exceedingly rare overall, but well-preserved examples—especially military-marked or original-condition rifles—are increasingly sought after by collectors and vintage target shooting enthusiasts. Today, the Remington 513-T Matchmaster remains highly regarded for its balance, craftsmanship, and enduring accuracy, representing a golden-era smallbore rifle that continues to perform impressively decades after its production ended.
