I am tryin to figure out when my 700 .243 win was made. When I as given it, it came with aftermarket barrel with no serial number. the only id on it is 7 numbers on the left side of the action. I know its old but not sure how old. The only stuff I found requires a barrel marking which it doesn't have. Any help? Thanks!!

Numbers only will be an old action.
700 receivers with ser# 1000-387347 started in 1962 until 11-68. 6200000-6899999 started in 11-1968 until 8-1975.

Is it a factory trigger? Most likely it’s a bolt locking if so.

Looks like it fall the that second range of dates. As for the trigger, I sent it back to Remington for the trigger recall after it went off in my wife’s hands after closing the bolt. They replaced it and no issues since
