Overview
The AAC Remington Micro 7 is a compact, suppressor-optimized bolt-action rifle built on the Remington Model Seven action and chambered in .300 AAC Blackout. Designed as a collaboration between Advanced Armament Corporation (AAC) and Remington, the Micro 7 was tailor-made for use with suppressors, featuring a 16-inch nitrided barrel with 5/8x24 muzzle threading, a 1:7 twist rate optimized for heavy subsonic .300 BLK projectiles, and a 20 MOA one-piece Picatinny rail. At just 6.9 pounds and 34.5 inches overall, the Micro 7 offered a lightweight, handy platform for suppressed precision shooting in tight environments where stealth and portability are paramount.

Notes
The 1:7 twist rate is specifically chosen to stabilize the heavy 220-grain subsonic bullets commonly used in suppressed .300 BLK applications. The nitrided barrel surface and bore treatment provides corrosion resistance and improved barrel life. The adjustable cheekpiece on the synthetic stock allows proper alignment with mounted optics. The rifle was discontinued following Remington's bankruptcy reorganization in 2020, though remaining inventory continued to sell for several years. The .300 AAC Blackout cartridge was developed by AAC (now part of Remington) specifically for suppressed shooting, making the Micro 7 a natural extension of the company's suppressor expertise. The 3.5-pound single-stage trigger provides clean, predictable breaks for precision work.
Background
The AAC Remington Micro 7 represented a full-circle moment for Advanced Armament Corporation: the company that designed the .300 Blackout cartridge specifically for suppressed use finally had a purpose-built bolt-action rifle to showcase its creation. The lightweight Micro 7 paired with an AAC suppressor became the quintessential 'quiet rifle' package for hunters and tactical users alike.
