I'm hoping someone with more knowledge of 700's can answer a couple of questions about a rifle I recently acquired.
It's a LH BDL with an "A" prefixed serial number. The barrel, however, is a stainless 308 without the warning stamp and with a left side (i.e. date) stamp of "LH" (curious that this is the stamp when the rifle is a left-handed one!)
This code would suggest a date of Feb. 1987, for the barrel anyway. I thought Remington was putting the warning on barrels by this time, but I can't find any verification of when that actually started.
Thanks for any insights anyone can provide.
