Just recently bought one of the new 700's in the brown laminated stock with the black finished barrel and action---this stock has the glossy finish, cheek piece and the new Remington recoil pad---shoots like a dream, as all my 700's have---these can still be had for under $500 from Bud's---I'd love to get a new ADL, that was my first big bore many years ago, but I've not seen any new for sale, at least in my area----I know Remington's gotten some bad press lately, but mine have all been top of the line hunting rifles and accurate----------John
