Remington 700 ID?

[hogpatrol]

No luck finding much about a 700 action I acquired off of an old 6BR short range benchrest rifle. It's a six digit, no prefix serial number, (starts with 25) drilled on the left side for sights, the bolt face shows no indication of ever having an old or new style extractor and the existing one is a Sako style. Firing pin is .074 but the bolt face looks like it was bushed. Tenon end is faced and drilled for a pinned recoil lug. Couldn't find much on the Remington sites except that this may have been made for military use. Having said all that, any estimates on its value?

Just a plain old good 700 with the bolt face bushed and sako installed. Nice looking action

Thanks Dusty. I'm debating on building a 6.5x47 on a #3 fluted for hunting or selling this and buying a Kelbly's. The original rifle did shot lights out.

Let me know if you decide to sell it looks like a nice action

Last few weeks I read about Remington 700 years with logo underlined on receiver. I never noticed this before. Any idea when Rem. stopped doing this? my guess is 1960s late.

Just an update, this is where it now lives, .45 1-20 Brux, SML shooting 275 Pittman land riders. The Sako extractor works well with the primer modules. First blood was this week on a mid size doe.

Some useless info here on the s/n
I have a 722 action that is 6 digits and starts with 22.
Also have a 700 that starts with 32 and is dated to June 1968.
So, that action appears to be right around the time of the change over to 700's
