Remington 700 BDL. I looked up the serial number and best I can tell it's a 1988 Remington classic. Factory 35 Whelen not a re barrel job. I bought it last year and never fired it. It's in a newer SPS stock that fits nicely. Two boxes of factory Federal 225 grain Trophy Bonded. New RCBS dies included as well just not pictured. Leupold quick detach bases are on it and 1" plus 30mm rings included. Still has the factory iron sights too. I don't know what triggers in it but I've got a Timney I could include for another $75. Bore looks clean. The bluing has a few little worn spots but no rust or anything. I'm in Four Corners/ Bozeman. Not really looking to ship so face to face only. Bill of sale and ID shown by both parties. I'm in no hurry to sell it but I'll probably never use it since I just had a 358 Norma built. $600 for everything pictured plus the dies. Pretty firm on price but open to trades.

Trades: Beretta 92, Tikka stainless 30-06 or any stainless 30-06 possibly. Newer Leupold spotting scope, Most anything in 45 Colt, 44mag , or maybe a lever action of some sort. Please no war relics, AR's, AK's, or Taurus anything. I can add cash if you have something really interesting. Thanks.

I had a Remington BDL classic in .35 Whelen. Worked great on everything. After I got my .375 H&H, I didn't need it anymore. Mine had the BDL wood stock. That is a good price on your rifle. I got $850 for mine some time ago.
 
So, being a sucker for all things 35 I'm trying to justify keeping this. I pulled the iron sights off and tossed a non CDs 4.5-14x40 VX3I on it and took it shooting. I installed the Timney trigger and a new firing pin spring and cleaned all the skuz out of the bolt. When I didn't jerk it the groups were pretty good. However, after shooting my soft kicking 358 Win and thumping 358 Norma today I've decided I'm still going to part with this Whelen. It's now 10 rounds of Factory loaded 225 Federal and 30 pieces of brass along with dies. Scope rings of some sort still included. If you want it as is sighted in with scope I'll go $800 for everything. Otherwise still at that $600 minimum but now included is an installed new trigger. Definitely willing to entertain trades too. I'm still not interested in shipping. Thanks for looking.

Still available. I appreciate all the offers but I've got no interest in shipping. I do make it over to Billings sometimes.
