Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Remington XP-100 Varmint Special is part of the legendary XP-100 family, a series of bolt-action pistols introduced by Remington in 1963 and produced through various configurations into the early 1990s. Designed originally as a purpose-built silhouette and varmint handgun, the XP-100 was one of the first commercially successful bolt-action pistols and helped establish long-range handgun shooting as a serious discipline. Built around a shortened Model 600 action and originally chambered in the high-velocity .221 Fireball—developed specifically for the pistol—it combined rifle-like precision with a compact, lightweight platform. Over the decades, the XP-100 evolved into multiple variants, including the Varmint Special, which was tailored for hunters and target shooters who needed enhanced accuracy and stability at extended distances.

The XP-100 Varmint Special distinguished itself through upgraded barrels, improved ergonomics, and chamberings suited for precision varmint work. It typically featured a heavier, target-grade barrel and a refined synthetic stock designed to maximize control from field positions or shooting rests. Like other XP-100 models, it maintained a crisp, adjustable trigger and the inherent accuracy of its bolt-action design, making it a favorite among enthusiasts who valued both portability and precision. Production of the XP-100 series ultimately ended in the early 1990s, but the Varmint Special remains a sought-after variant among collectors and shooters. Its combination of historical significance, innovative design, and real-world accuracy ensures its place as one of the most iconic specialty pistols ever produced.
