Remington Model 700
The Remington Model 700 is the flagship sporting bolt action hunting rifle for Remington Arms. Introduced to the public in late 1962, it was a development of the previous sporting rifles, the Remington Model 721 and 722. The Model 721 was the first truly modern sporting rifle of the 20th century. The bolt action was the strongest of its kind when it was introduced in 1948 and was not just a sporterized version of a military surplus rifle. However, the 721 was only offered in long action.
It was available in .264 Winchester, .270 Winchester, .280 Remington, .30-06, and .300 H&H Mag. The 722 was developed for smaller game cartridges with a short action only - it was available in .222 Remington, .222 Remington Magnum, .243 Winchester, .244 Remington, .257 Roberts, .300 Savage, and .308 Winchester. Both the 721 and 722 rifles were discontinued in 1962 upon the introduction of the new and refined Model 700.
The Model 700 is a refined firearm design that delivers exceptional quality and accuracy for a mass produced firearm.
The Remington Model 700 and variants can be seen in the following films, television series, video games, and anime used by the following actors:

Remington 700PSS/700P
In 1986, Remington developed their dedicated police precision rifle, the 700PSS (called the PSS-700 in many publications contrary to the designation by Remington), a heavy weight barreled sniper rifle based on the 700 action. PSS stands for Police Sniper System. It had a lightweight synthetic stock made by H-S Precision, and a heavy profile barrel. Remington also made a 'varmint' version with a thinner, tapered barrel called the 700 VS.
The 700PSS was available chambered in 5.56x45mm, and .308 Winchester (7.62x51mm NATO) in short action (shorter receiver), and .300 Winchester Magnum in a long action. Some police SWAT units purchased the long action, but barreled for the .308/7.62x51mm NATO round (much like the US Army M24), giving the option to change to the larger caliber. Remington ceased sales of the 700PSS around 1999, rumored to be an attempt to be politically correct, however Remington company literature never mentioned a reason for the decision. Remington knew that the 700PSS was popular amongst hunters and police snipers alike and pushed the lighter barreled 700VS "Varmint" shooter as substitute. Though the VS had its fans, it never replaced the heavy barreled PSS in the minds of Remington shooters.
By the early-mid 2000s, Remington re-released a version of the PSS as the 700P (P for "Parkerized", not police) for law enforcement and general public sales. The barrel on the newer P models is not as heavy as the original PSS models and the new "P" model has a palm swell in the grip of the rifle. In most films, armorers still use PSS models, as they are more readily available in their armories than the newer 700P.
Any film shot prior to 2004, the rifle cannot be the P model, but must be the PSS model, despite being nearly identical.

M40 Sniper Rifle
The United States Marine Corps employs a variant of the Remington 700 as their standard issue sniper rifle, with the model name M40. The main difference between the M40 and the M24 is that the M24 uses the "long" version of Remington 700 receiver versus the M40's "short action". The M40's short receiver is dedicated to cartridges that do not exceed the length of the issue 7.62 mm NATO round. In contrast, the M24's longer receiver allows the rifle to be converted from 7.62 mm NATO to the more powerful .300 Winchester Magnum cartridge. The U.S. Army specified this capability in case future tactics required the larger cartridge's extra range and penetration.

M40A5 Sniper Rifle
The M40A5 is basically an M40A3 with detachable 5 or 10-round box magazine and threaded barrel for mounting sound suppressors. It is being manufactured since 2009 by both Remington Arms and U.S. Ordnance.
The skipping of the M40A2 and M40A4 designations was intended to avoid confusion with still-in-inventory M40 Recoilless Rifle variants with those designations.

M40A6 Sniper Rifle
The new rifle is essentially refurnished M40A5s but in the upgraded stock. The older McMillan stocks are taken off, and the new modular stocks are put back on. The rifles also come with 10 round Accuracy International magazines instead of the older 10 round magazines. Optics are staying the same with the Schmidt & Bender M8541, and the Surefire Suppressor system. The new rifles were placed in service in November 2015 and will very likely be the last 7.62x51mm sniper rifle that the Marine Corps will issue since they are currently in the process to acquire the Remington MK13 Mod 7 in .300 Winchester Magnum.
The M40A6 has a 20-inch Schneider Stainless Steel barrel with Surefire Muzzle Brake/Adapter, M24 Trigger tuned to 2.5 pounds, Badger Ordnance 306-76 1.490" Steel Scope Rings, Schmidt and Bender 3-12x50 Scope, and a Harris 6-9 SBRM with Podloc.

M24 Sniper Weapon System
The M24 SWS (Sniper Weapon System) is the military and police version of the Remington 700 rifle, M24 being the model name assigned by the United States Army after adoption as their standard sniper rifle in 1988. It is also used by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). The M24 is referred to as a "weapons system" because the designation incorporates the complete set of of items associated with it: as well as the rifle it also includes the sling, bipod, scope and scope accessories, iron sights, cleaning kit, carrying cases and carry bag, ammo pouch and stock saddle, scope protector, ballistic tools (including a handheld wind meter, notebook and ballistic calculator), flash hider, suppressor if the rifle is a variant that has one, field manuals, and the match-grade ammunition.
By April 2014, all M24s in US Army inventory had been converted into the M2010 Enhanced Sniper Rifle configuration.

Remington M2010 Enhanced Sniper Rifle
The M2010 Enhanced Sniper Rifle is derived from the M24 and is intended to replace the existing M24 rifles of the U.S. Army in the upcoming years. The rifle trades the 7.62x51mm NATO round for the more powerful .300 Winchester Magnum round for increased effective range. The changes affect most parts of the M24, including the barrel, chambering, butt-stock, scope, muzzle brake, magazine, and sound suppressor.
See Remington MSR for a similar-looking sniper rifle.

Remington 700 AICS
A Remington 700 action fitted into an Accuracy International Chassis System is another configuration popular in recent film and television production. This configuration is often mistaken for a variant of the Accuracy International Arctic Warfare series, but often can correctly be identified by the Remington 700's distinctive bolt action. There are three models of the AICS: the base 1.0 model, the 1.5 which adds an adjustable cheek rest, and the 2.0 which has a folding stock and adjustable cheek rest. Accuracy international also manufactures the AXAICS chassis which emulates the look of the Accuracy International AX rifle series. Two versions of the AXAICS exist, a pre-2014 with a solid stock that folds to the left side of the gun, and a post-2014 model with a skeletonised stock that folds along the right side (with the skeletonised portion accommodating the bolt handle).
