I am looking for some info on a recent purchase. I've been in the market for a 700/243 Winchester, and I found one at my local pawn shop. I visited the shop several times to look at the weapon, and decited to arrange a purchase. The Serial number is B6411542 made in Ilion New York. I would like to know the date of manufacture. If any member can give me this info. It would be greatly appreciated. The 700 is nice to average shape. and sports a 4X Redfield scope.I plan to deer hunt with this 243. Thanks Sunny
