    Not going to win the oldest contest, but the oldest I have is a 1986 Remington 700 in 243.

    Comfortably a sub MOA gun. Obviously been very well looked after by previous owners. Trigger definitely been worked on by a professional before, as it's crisper than a modern Tikka. Wood and blueing is great to look at. Action is super slick.
    My only regret is putting a Waikati Engineering overbarrel suppressor on it. Effective and quality suppressor that will probably outlast the gun, but so big and heavy it affects the handling of the rifle significantly.
