Our Assessment
The Remington Model 700 has been a defining American bolt action rifle since its introduction in 1962. Developed under the direction of Remington engineer Mike Walker, the design evolved from the company's earlier Models 721 and 722, incorporating manufacturing efficiencies alongside features intended to improve consistency and accuracy. Its cylindrical receiver, dual locking lug bolt, and recessed bolt face became recognizable elements of a rifle platform used extensively in hunting, target shooting, and specialized professional applications.
Introduced in 2003, the Model 700 CDL (Classic Deluxe) emphasized traditional sporting rifle aesthetics. Its satin blued metalwork, checkered American walnut stock, and classic profile distinguished it from synthetic stocked and more specialized Model 700 configurations. The CDL continued the familiar Remington bolt action design while presenting it in a configuration reminiscent of the company's traditional sporting rifles.
This example is chambered in .270 Winchester, a cartridge introduced by Winchester in 1925 that became especially well regarded for its flat trajectory and versatility in North American hunting. Paired with the CDL's 24 inch barrel, the chambering reflects the longstanding popularity of traditional bolt action sporting rifles.
Manufactured in 2008, this rifle retains approximately 97 percent of its original satin blued finish and remains in Fine overall condition. Its checkered walnut stock exhibits only minor handling marks, while the matching numbered bolt and clear factory markings contribute to its documented configuration. The bore remains bright with sharp rifling and rates 9.5 out of 10, with light fouling and minor erosion near the muzzle.
For collectors of Remington sporting rifles, this Model 700 CDL represents a classic walnut stocked configuration from the late 2000s. Its traditional appearance, original finish, matching bolt, and .270 Winchester chambering illustrate the continued appeal of the Model 700 as an American sporting rifle design.
