I have an '80s wood-stocked short action Rem 700 BDL that needs a new home (part of my dad's estate).
Started off as .250 Savage. Glass bedding and truing of action, free-floating of barrel, trigger adjustment, bolt jeweling, and re-chambering to .250 Ackley all done by Howard Dietz, a very reputable local gunsmith from this area.
Bluing looks perfect to me. Stock has a slight dings and light scratches from handling, but overall looks good.
