One of the M700s was a leftover at a shop that just wanted to get rid of it.. Was an older model and the stock was pretty beat up. I bought it for $125 and tore it apart. Rebarreled it in .358 STA and put a replacement Rem stock on it.. Blued it to like new and it's been in the safe ever since.. Thought it would be da bomb for big bear country..

The other was a NIB M700 in .17 Rem I bought circa '95.. And I love it.. There's something about a 25 gr boolit traveling 4,000 fps on it's way to a varmint that just OOOZES fun.. Hardly any recoil or muzzle flip. Peanuts to reload. It's one I'll keep until I'm dead. smile
