"In our collaboration with Remington and looking at the growth of the American rifle sports market, we conceived the SABER M700 as an entirely American made sport utility rifle, much like the iconic Jeep® - arguably the most customized SUV in America," says Matthew Peterson, Ashbury's Product Development Coordinator.  "This solidly performing, rugged, range-ready rifle," continues Peterson, "is easily configured and accessorized to meet the many needs of recreational shooters, hunters and entry level precision rifle competitors. We are also very excited about the prospects for APO's long action, minimalist, Tactical Hunter variants of the SABER M700 chambered in 30-06, .300WM and .338LM."
