Our Assessment: The Remington XR-100 Rangemaster was introduced as a dedicated precision shooting rifle, combining features of Remington’s Model 700 bolt action platform with a solid bottom single shot receiver and a heavy barrel designed for target and varmint shooting. Chambered in .204 Ruger, this 2005 example features a 26″ heavy contour barrel, a distinctive laminate thumbhole stock, and a fully free floating barrel. The .204 Ruger was introduced in 2004 and quickly gained popularity among varmint shooters for its high velocity, flat trajectory, and relatively mild recoil. The mounted Leupold VX-III 6.5-20×40 scope complements the rifle’s precision oriented configuration, providing substantial magnification for deliberate shooting at extended distances.
This rifle is in Excellent condition overall, retaining about 99% of its original matte blue finish with no notable metal wear. The laminate thumbhole stock also remains in Excellent condition with an intact finish, a tight fit to the barreled action, and no chips or cracks. The bore is semi bright with sharp rifling and fouling present, rating 9/10, while the action and safety function correctly. The trigger has a crisp, clean break, and the bolt jeweling remains vivid and bright. The included Leupold VX-III 6.5-20×40 scope has clear glass and remains in Excellent condition. The single shot action, heavy barrel, distinctive thumbhole stock, and .204 Ruger chambering make this a particularly appealing example of Remington’s dedicated precision rifle lineup.
