The Remington Model 66 is chambered for the .22 long rifle cartridge. The most common twist rate for the .22 long rifle is one full turn in sixteen inches (1:16).
Check the date code on barrel ;) There's information on the Remington Society of America, check related links.
I have a Seneca Green Nylon 66 with a date stamp for February 1960 and a "Made in Canada" stamp on top of the barrel ahead of the rear sight. Hope this helps.
No that is wrong, Chrome. The Apache Black 66 & 76 were made with Chrome barrel and receiver.
No
it looks like in the blue book that the mod.# is nylon 66
There is a video on how to assemble and disassemble a nylon 66 on youtube.com
Remington.
Purple wasn't a Remington color.
Yes, Remington made a "Apache" model of the Nylon 66 .22 caliber rifle. It had a black nylon stock with a chrome plated barrel & receiver. It was a very nice looking rifle.
The serial number on a Remington Nylon 66 is typically located on the left side of the receiver, just above the trigger guard. It may also be found on the barrel, depending on the specific model and production year. If you're having trouble locating it, check the owner's manual for further guidance.
The Nylon 66 is a rifle that was made by Remington from 1959 to 1989. The brown and chrome model was Nylon 66MB and over 700,000 were produced.
