The Remington 5R is SS with a synthetic HS Precision stock and BDL bottom metal. It is available in short action. I just purchased a 260.
People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.

I've often wondered why SA standard bolt face M700 SS's with the satin finish were so rare during the early production years of the SS rifles. Now I know why. I just went through my Remington brochures from 94-2003.
The BDL SS/Synthetic was introduced in 1994. M700 BDL S/A with the standard bolt face were chambered in the 243 and 6 Rem for one year--1994. They also offered the 223 that year. From then on it was L/A only.
It wasn't until the SUAM's were introduced that they made the 7 and 300 SAUM in the S/A M700 SS DM rifles for a few years.
So S/A M700 BDL SS/Synthetics do exist in the standard bolt face, but it's gonna be a rare bird. I'd like to find one or two myself. The 223 would be interesting too.

Gonna have to keep an eye out for one myself now.
I for sure want a 7 Saum, particularly in the Model 7.
