Re: 6mm MAG XXX out

Remington 600,
Thanks for the update on these guns. Its odd as this gun may have come from you earlier,maybe 2-3 years ago? Owner said he did a FTF deal with a collector from around your area,St. Louis region?
How much does a BDL add to the premium?

Travis

Re: Remington 700 questions

Den, I looked in my 68 (ducks on the front) and I see what you are saying as they are listed as new. I went to my 67 catalog(bear on the front) and it has the exact same ad for the new Varmint Special. It is word for word as the 68. Basically the 68 is an error by saying they were new for 68 when in...

Re: Remington 700 questions

Just a correction,the BDL Varmint Special (wood stock,heavy barrel for clarification) was available from 67-94. Technically there was a handful made in 66,but they wasn't catalogued.Travis

Re: More questions about 700's

Den, Do you know when Remington stopped using the "green box" for their 700's? Im guessing around 96-97? Also,does anybody know the years the j-lock was used? Im trying to put together a little informal booklet and I dont have the catalog years 02,03,07,08,09 which is where I think the j-l...

Re: Remington 700 questions

Den,
I guess the BDL still has a heartbeat.I noticed some calibers have been discontinued though,must be like you said,burning up the excess parts perhaps.

Re: Remington 700 questions

Re: Remington 700 questions

ole fred, The first 700's,ADL or BDL, were introduced in the model year 1962. Both the ADL and BDL was available in a variety of calibers.The ADL has no floorplate,no grip cap,or ebony tip where as the BDL does and the ADL will have a different checkering style.The ADL stands for A Deluxe model and ...

Re: Remington 700 questions

Your Varmint Special was made in February of 1972. Should have a "ribbon type" press checkering on the stock.There was 1041 of them produced in that year for the 25-06.The Varmint Special actually hit the gunshops in 1967 thru 1994.Pm me if you need any more details or have any questions.T...

Im putting together a little list of different calibers and features for the different years and finding it to be hard time to document this feature. For example, what years was th...
