I live in Australia and Remingtons (while accurate and well made) are a complete rip off...I went to this gun shop (an official Remington stockist...there's only two of them in my city) that I rarely go to cos I needed to get something I couldn't get elsewhere...while there I asked how much is a Remington 700 CDL Left hander...he replies back that the righty is $1800 and the lefty is $200 dearer ($2000)...
And this is for a gun that sells for about $1000 dollars in the U.S. of A....the Aussie dollar is worth about 0.92 U.S. Cents at the moment...
I asked if they had any 2nd hand Remingtons...he comes back with a beat up 700 ADL with a cheap scope attached...outside of the gun had light rust marks on it...they wanted $799 for it!
![]() Just letting you know that the cost of that Ruger M77 Hawkeye .308 and that Bushnell Elite 4200 2.5-10x40 I bought from another gun shop recently, came to $1840 Australian...

Apostle, if it makes you feel any better, I paid for a US$1100 Remmy the equivalent of US$2000 in South Africa. (ZAR16000)
I considered a self import and could land it for about ZAR12 000, import duties etc all paid. However, with new USA gun export control etc decided not to go that route.

ST is correct. The front mount screw holes on ALL Remington 700's (as well as many other bolt action receivers) is blind. Actually, it is threaded all the way through, but when the barrel is mated to the receiver, the threaded barrel tenon blocks the front hole.
There is nothing wrong with your rifle. Just make sure your front mount screw doesn't contact the barrel tenon. If the screw does make contact, it can hinder accuracy, potentially not allow the front base to be securely tightened, and potentially damage a barrel thread.
