Remington EtronX: Electrically Primed Ammunition
The Remington EtronX, a Model 700 variant from 2000-2003, utilized an innovative electrical firing system with proprietary primers. This technology promised a 97% reduction in lock time, down to milliseconds, offering a theoretical accuracy advantage. Despite its advanced features like an adjustable trigger and a 9V battery power source, the EtronX failed commercially due to its high $2,000 MSRP and market skepticism towards electronics in firearms.
