Remington 700 - Remembering the Past (Chapter II)

In this episode we continue exploring the Remington Model 700. Andrew explains the differences between the 700ADL and the 700BDL. We show some of the differences in checkering patterns over the years of production. Andrew also takes a barreled action out of the stock and explains some of the things to look for in evaluating one of these rifles.

I used to have a Remington 700 BDL Left Hand with Cut Checkering, the left hand version was introduced in 1973 with impressed checkering. Mine was a1974 production one in the 670,000 serial number range. A small note is that it had a 7 digit serial number ending in "4", denoting 1974 production.

The tacsport pro is a fantastic trigger. Only have it on my comp bolt gun, but ill go straight to it if I decide my 06 needs a better trigger than whatever it came with 35 years ago.

Thank you so much for this clear information WITHOUT that distracting background music. Believe it or not it's better with just you speaking. No fuss no muss. Thank you again!!

Thanks for another informative video. Saved up my grass cutting money one summer in the 80's to buy a BDL 7 mag. Beautiful rifle.

I bought a 700 the second year they came out in 7 rem mag. Highly accurate rifle and came with a stainless barrel and in ADL gun. I have owned about a hundred Remington rifles and gave Winchester a run for there money since Winchester dropped the CRF action! One of the most copied actions of all time. I prefer the CRF for hunting but for target shooting the 700 design can produce some of the most accurate rifles! The safety concerns really hurt Remington but I think poor management in the end is what brought the company down! Hope the new owners of the ammo part and the rifle part both make wise decisions so the Remington name survives!

Good presentation. I was told by some benchrest shooting buddies that the ADL “blind magazine” model was potentially more accurate due to the solid stock configuration. My 7mm Remington magnum ADL model is an extremely accurate rifle, grouping well under a MOA at 100 yards.

I remember as a young boy seeing a Remington 660 in 6.5 and 350 Remington Magnum in a local gun shop. They had laminated stocks and vent ribs. Remington made a 600 model and a 600 Mohawk model with an 18½-inch barrel. I bought one for $69 dollars; it was one of the first deer rifles I bought. I shot my first Buck using it. I believe the only difference from a 660 was a dogleg bolt handle.👍

Great rifles and great cartridges! The 600 magnum in 6.5 and 350 mag had 18 1/2 inch barrel,laminated stock, ribbed barrel and dog leg bolt handle. The 660 magnum had a 20 inch barrel no rib and also had a dog leg bolt handle and laminated stock.

My dad owns a ADL built Dec-1963 that has only been shot 40-50 times it’s a beautiful gun

Another great video. I hope this channel keeps growing.
My dad always had Remington shotguns but Winchester rifles. Would love to see a video on the model 70 and 670 someday

I'm waiting for the winchester model 70 pre 64 I inherited one in 300 magnum only shot less than 20 times in mint condition. Researching all Info I can find want to learn long range precision shooting with it.

[@marcrenken4308]

Very informative video. What information can you provide on the Remington left handed 788 in 6mm or .308?
