I handled a Remington 700BDL in 375H&H Magnum today, and I noticed that the barrel had no address and was stamped 375H&H but no other markings. I figured custom shop or a very well done rebarrel. Any input?

sure dont Hanco. The rifle looked practically brand new, after doing some GB surfing it appears to be a Remington custom shop rifle

On the ones I have, the only markings are the cartridge and a few have something like “Remington Custom Shop, Illion, NY” on the top of the barrel about half way to the muzzle. I think one of my centerfiire 40-XBs has an assembler’s mark on the left side of the barrel just in front of the receiver ring; others don’t. On some, the cartridge designation is tiny and others it’s more normal in size.

It sounds like the one you’re looking at a Custom Shop gun

My two have nothing on barrels except very small caliber markings.


Is a C grade a custom shop rifle? They make D and F grades??

The only other markings will be proofs on the right side and perhaps a barrel date code after the chambering.

This is an example of a typical CS marking.

There is an “F” grade, 220 swift on Guns International. Look under Remington Custom Shop.
