This has a C serial number and is one from the first run they made around 1990 and is still unfired. The metal is 100%, bolt shows almost no wear at all from being worked. However, the bolt handle has taken on a plum color. Wood has a couple of light handling marks that lightly dent the surface but no dings or scratches.
Rifle with box.
Rifle alone.
Bolt handle.
The only handling marks I can find. These don't go through the finish, are more just light rub marks.
This is also being advertised on AR.
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
I'd seriously recommend someone shoot this before making it a donor. Every .243 Model 700 I've ever owned shot ridiculously small groups.
I have a brother to it, another .243 leftie BDL from that first run. It shot bughole groups with boring regularity up until the throat got so bad that you couldn't touch the lands with a 100 grain bullet and have it inside the case.
Was going to shoot this one but decided to rebarrel the other one. It's at the gunsmith right now getting a factory barrel from a CDL installed. Have decided to mostly get rid of duplicated chamberings in my rifles, so this one is up to hopefully make someone else a very nice shooter.
