Rifle came in on trade and I disassembled it as barrel was not original nor was the stock.

Long action, originally chambered in 30-06 and retains same bolt face. Guessing 1965-67 based on 6 digit serial number 3XXXXX. Early style saftey with bolt lock. Early trigger (non 40X with adjustment screw). Some marks from use and where previous bases were mounted.

If looking to build a vintage 700, here's your chance. As a reminder, Remington removed the bolt lock as it forced you to take off safe to unload, even on a loaded chamber. Can easily remove bolt stop function if desired as well as swap any 700 trigger

Action functions well. $350 shipped to your FFL.

Someone.... Someone please buy this so I won't.
 
Great price, that short bolt shroud and the trigger with the tombstone safety are worth almost the asking price. Now if only it were a short action.
 
Dang. I’d love to build a rifle out of that.
 
I will take it, However I am in the woods now and cannot arrange payment until Monday. If someone can pay you sooner than that, no need to hold for me. I need it like another hole in the head but can't stand knowing this needs a home. I have a soft heart like that.

About Lon's Elephant hunts w/Tokoloshe? I hear Lon is battling cancer? What is his long term prognosis? I am already booked to hunt Africa in 2024 2025. Might consider 2026 for another African hunt. I want to hunt a more wild open region devoid of civilization. Concern is the risk that I book f/2026 then find poor Lon has passed on? Does Lon have any assistance to carry on the business in his absence?

Is your 22HP still available? If so have the original case?

Hi Ian, I'm contemplating my first outing, leaving UK via Dubai to Africa, taking rifles as you did.

I presume it went okay for you, would you have done anything differently? Cheers, Richard East Sussex
