Here I go again with a common RS in 300. I have a couple of Rs and they are not my favorite to hunt with. I got this one today at the local show and I guess the hook swivels called to me. Anyway the serial number is 5726xx and it looks all original except for the sling. Did they come with a sling? Boss code is B but I don't know what the 23 is for. Also saw a salesman model with the two tapped holes behind the bolt. It had sling swivels, that isn't correct for that gun is it? Poor shape and over $1200.

Didn't ship with the sling but it has the hooks that work with the hook eyes that are factory. Nice find. smile

The "B" is the year. The "28" is the inspectors number.

"salesman model with the two tapped holes behind the bolt." Was it roll engraved? The roll engraved ones usually had the sling swivels. The ones that are just D&T'ed didn't.

Thanks guys, this one makes a couple of Rs expendable. Yes Rick it was the roll engraved one. That is what got my attention, I thought they were all roll engraved. Now that it is correct I have to decide if $1200+ is too much. It really was pretty faded. When the blueing is thin on that roll engraving it looks pretty bad. Thanks for the info.
