I'm a fan of early 1960s and 70s Remington production.
As some among the gun gurus here will know early Remington 700 rifles had button rifling before hammer forged barrels were put into production in 1969.
My question is: were early 1970s Custom C barrels button rifled or hammer forged as the marking on a "C" barrel are not stamped as other Remington production rifles with the usual barrel address but only a coded production date and the caliber?
So again, were these barrels button rifled? [I ask because these guns are crazy accurate!]

I would think you'd have to get one of the Remington "history" books to truly determine that, because a lot of colloquial knowledge was lost in the ceaseless buyouts, mergers and moves. NRA Life Retired USN
