About This Firearm
The Remington 700 ADL is a synthetic-stocked bolt-action .270 Winchester built for deer hunting. Remington no longer makes it, so it is a used buy. It is the plain end of the Model 700 line, sold in matte blue with a 24-inch barrel and nothing on the receiver, and it was catalogued as a package with a scope already fitted.
Four rounds go in the magazine and no sights are fitted, so a base, rings and glass are the first outlay on a used one. The stock has a short 13.38-inch length of pull. Remington describes the safety by two positions, S for safe and F for fire, and there is nothing on the stock to adjust.
If you're cross-shopping, the Savage 110 Hunter is also a used buy, with a comb and a length of pull that adjust and an AccuTrigger set at 2.5 lbs. The Bergara B-14 Hunter is new at an MSRP of $949, with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee and the same 24 inches of barrel. Bases and rails cut for the Remington 700 are stocked everywhere, and other makers build to that pattern.

Strengths & Limitations
- Bergara builds its B-14 rifles to take any standard Remington 700 rail, so the base pattern this rifle uses is one other makers design around and bases for it are stocked everywhere.
- Barrel and receiver are carbon steel under a matte blue finish, which a gunsmith can strip and re-blue when a used rifle starts to show its age.
- The barrel is 2 inches longer than the Savage 110 Hunter's, so the .270 case gets more room to work.
- The short length of pull is fixed, so a taller shooter is adding a thicker pad to the butt.
- At 44.5 inches overall it is a long rifle to turn around in a blind or carry through thick timber.
- Many were sold with a scope already mounted, so price the glass on a used one separately and expect to replace it.

.270 Winchester Ballistics →Frequently Asked Questions
Which scope base fits it?
A base or rail cut for the Remington 700 long action. Bergara's hunting rifles take the same pattern, so a spare from one of those will fit this.
What do the S and F markings mean?
Safe and fire. Remington documents no third position on this safety.
What twist rate did the .270 get?
1:10, right hand, which is the standard .270 Winchester rate and stabilizes every factory bullet weight sold for the cartridge.
