serial #6714393, 308 Win, 24'' heavy barrel with a bright near excellent bore with scattered pinprick pitting but strong rifling. The stainless steel surfaces of the barrel are in very good to very good plus condition with a few specks of light oxidation, two light linear wear marks, and scattered light handling marks. The sleeved action retains 99% black anodized finish with some slight silvering on the edges of the ejection port, and the visible portions of the steel action retain 96% blue finish with light operational wear and scattered light handling marks; the bolt shroud and handle display light oxidation, and the bolt body is jeweled and shows light wear. The brown synthetic pistolgrip stock is in about very good condition with small chips at the tip of the comb, on the edge of the pistolgrip, and on the forend, a 3'' sinuous hairline crack, perhaps only through the outer finish, traveling forward of the triggerguard, and scattered light handling marks; the stock features a Pachmayr rifle pad and the pistolgrip has a pebble-textured finish. The barrel appears unmarked except for the ''308 Win'' caliber designation on the left side of the barrel at the breech, and the receiver sleeve is only marked ''700 Rem.'' with the serial number along the left side. An extremely light target trigger is installed in the rifle, having close to no travel before crisply breaking, and the rifle possess no internal magazine and is fit with a single-shot adapter. The bolt is retained in the action via a single Allen head screw. The rifle has no provisions for open sights, but is fit with a pair of Weaver scope bases. A solid custom Remington 700 target rifle that should shoot very well. (14A9738-217) [Kris Congdon Collection] {MODERN} (500/700)
