Remington Model 512 Sportsmaster

The Remington Model 512 Sportsmasteris a bolt action rifle manufactured by Remington Arms. The Model 512 has a 25 in barrel, a one piece hardwood stock, and a blued metal finish. An unusual feature of this rifle is that it uses a tubular magazine in conjunction with a bolt action. Most modern tube fed firearms typically utilize a lever action or a pump action, but in the middle of the 20th century, many bolt action .22's utilized tubular magazines as the high capacity magazine of the era.
