| I have an identical (well nearly) 700 Classic in 300 H&H and I agree with your gunsmith. I'd rather get another gun in the same caliber before I'd refinish that 300 H&H. It's a slick looking gun. |

| Getting another gun is not an option. It would be like leaving your favorite dog at home. I have killed scores of animals with this gun and would NEVER part with it, so keping it "original" is not a concern. It is accurate and fits me like a glove. |

| Refinish it.
I think the blue can be bead blasted with the finest media available. The advantage of trying bead blast is if it doesn't work, you can keep on blasting until the metal is stripped, then refinish. |
