Re: Remington 700 222 ?

Perusing the rack at larger local shooting sports store during this time turned up a couple of uncatalogued items from Remington. One for sure was a snowcamo stocked stainless 22/250 varmint type rifle and an odd stocked 597. Both were new in box. Didn't kno at the time they mite be limited models ...

Re: Were all Model 725 bolt handles blued?

Typically, the bolt handle should be blued. Important in this case to is be sure the bolt matches the serial number.

Re: Slotted screw head imprint over serial #

The symbol is super likely the assembler. Due to the limited space and the fact that the date code letters are stamped separately, the assembler and year date letter overlapped.

Re: looking for info on a model 700 222 cal number 7825

April or May, 1962, the first year of the 700 if 7825 is the serial number! Should have a 20 inch barrel. Should have the letters C or K and K on the barrel ahead of where the serial number is.

Re: Remington 700

The serial number puts it late 1978. Should have a barrel code of D or E Q.

Re: Info on model 600

Unsure what you are asking. M600s have silver bolt handles. 660s and Mohawk 600s have blued handles(no rib on barrel). Need a better description. Your dating seems off. On the barrel ahead of the serial number is the date code. 2 letters closest to the recoil lug, same font, stamped separately in ...

Yes, that would be the inspectors "mark", unique to them.

Re: Remington 721 Identification Challenge

April 1951 lines up with both the barrel date code and the serial number.

Re: Info on Model 7400 carbine-280rem

Nice. Keep that box. I find it odd the order number is so vastly different from the standard numbers. Seems to be dated Oct, 2001 but follows the 2002 5 digit order numbers. Is the build date stamped on the barrel?

Re: Dating my 25-20

The right side are all standard markings for Proofing and such. AW on the left side would somewhat line up with the serial number era at March, 1928-which is an anomaly from the serial number dating list I saw, but not off by a lot. The AW is one of really 3 markings on the left. With AW considered ...
