Good looking rifle.
Used to have one in the same caliber and configuration.
It was a tack driver.

I've got the same rifle (BDL w/bull barrel) in .222 Rem. A real tack driver.

Good gun , you will like everything but toting it . Deep your rounds under 4000’ per second to extend barrel life.

Good lookin rifle and no doubt strong medicine for a coyote or a prairie dog town.

I have that same rifle in both 22-250 and 243. Both are literal tack drivers.

Nice early model 700. That's my favorite checking pattern on the 700s. The 7mms of that vintage had a blued stainless barrel.

I have one also in 25-06, made in 1969 I think. Nice looking rifle, my favorite checkering pattern too.

You have way too many of the same gun. The ATF is going to break down your door before daylight, inadequately announced, lure you into defending yourself from an intruder, and shoot you in the face.

I love those older model 700 BDL's. I had one in 222 and it was a great shooter. That rifle aired out a lot of ground hogs. I wish I still owned it.
