Within every Remington, primer is a group of subcomponents assembled to exceptionally tight tolerances. Primer cup dimensions are controlled to .0001″, and the priming mix is specially formulated for consistent ignition with a wide variety of powder types. Primers are tested for reliability from -20 degrees F to +150 degrees F. The unique tripod anvil design creates a larger strike area with maximum sensitivity, even with off-center firing pin strikes. Etronix primers are only for use with Remington model 700 Etronix rifles.

No, the Model 700 was the only version that was made for the EtronX. It was available in 220 Swift, 22-250 and 243 only. Was a cool concept for say benchrest shooters that wanted a .5lb trigger that felt like a mouse click and a adjustable lock time. It also was cool as there was no striker tension when cycling the bolt. All in all, someday we will look back at this as the early model of electric firearms. Kinda like the old Horseless Carriage.
