just picked up a rifle, basicly for the action. its a SS 22" remington 700 synthetic stock w/ blind mag (ala ADL).
i cant find any listing of a stainless ADL ever being produced.

I've seen them before.

You probably already know, but the only diff is the mag box, stock, and trigger gaurd. You can easily change it to BDL with a mag box, bottom metal, and new stock if you want to when you build. The spring and follower will work just fine in either set-up.

Good Luck

i decided to pass on the build. i wanted a 338-06 but i can afford the cost to do it. i'm gonna sell the rifle and buy a CDL in 280 for now then rebarrel it at some point down the road.

I own one in .280 remington, with mountain rifle contour. Trying to work through accuracy issues.

I'm very confident that the "first" Stainless and Synthetic Remington rifles were all ADL Models.

I have one in 7mmRemMag that I got when the first one arrived(the one I have) at Carolina Sporting Arms in Charlotte. It initially had a small problem with the Bolt, but CSA returned it to Remington and it came back as one of the most accurate, Belted Magnum rifles I've got.

I actually prefer the Blind Magazine to the Hinged Floor Plate. You can half work the Bolt and push the Cartridges out of the Guide Rails then tilt the rifle to the side and they roll right into your hand.

Great rifles!

ill see what this one has. i just put 6-18x40 scope atop. i have less than $500 into the whole thing scoped including leupold bases and rings, so if shes not a shooter i can deal w/ selling it and not losing my ass.
