Our Assessment: This Remington 700 Police Sniper Special, serial number C6568052, was manufactured in 1990 and represents the early era of factory-configured precision rifles marketed specifically for law enforcement. Built on the proven Remington Model 700 action, the Police Sniper Special combined the strength of the cylindrical receiver and dual-lug bolt with a heavy contour barrel and law-enforcement-oriented configuration. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, the 700 PSS became one of the foundational rifles in American police precision rifle programs.

Chambered in .308 Winchester with a 24" barrel, this rifle is built around one of the most respected precision cartridges of the modern era. Introduced in the 1950s, the .308 Winchester earned widespread military and law enforcement adoption for its accuracy potential, manageable recoil, and consistent ballistic performance. The bore rates an excellent 9.5 out of 10, and the action functions correctly, reflecting strong mechanical condition. The bolt is matching, supporting originality and configuration consistency.

Approximately 98% of the original finish remains, presenting a clean and well-preserved appearance consistent with limited use. Overall condition aligns with a rifle that has been carefully maintained while retaining its factory configuration. As an early 1990 production Remington 700 Police Sniper Special in .308 Winchester, this rifle stands as a representative example of the platform that helped define modern American precision rifle standards.
