Love it. I have a 1964 Remington 700 ADL from my Dad in 30-06. I put the Williams WGRS peep on it. So fun. If a person removes the insert and use it as a ghost ring it does much better in the woods.
It's a classic, no doubt. My father gave it to me as a teenager for hunts in Wyoming. Being from Indiana, where centerfire rifles are not allowed for hunting, it was a quick appreciation. After arriving one year for a hunt in Wyoming and the scope was off, I decided to go with peep sights. It was an instant win for appeal and functionality.
You can find out how old it is. Not by the serial number, but by the markings on the left side of the barrel at the receiver. Look up the codes and you can determine the date of manufacture.
The codes are out there online. How I found out I bought what a guy thought was an sps. Come to find out it is a 1969 700 7mm remmag magnum stock stainless steel polished from the custom factory. Serious upgrade in every aspect.
Hello Willow Tree. I had those peep sights installed when I was a teen by our local gun smith for taking to Wyoming to hunt deer and antelope with my father which was more than 30 years past. When I get home this weekend I will look at the peep sights and give you the specific item # if they are shown externally.
@@dirtydan8342 hey, thanks for checking that out! Doing some digging myself, I found a Williams peep sight for 700s, which I'm going to install on my uncle's .270, which I recently inherited. 🙂😥

Nice looking rifle for that age. Remington quit drilling and tapping the 700 for receiver sights in 1978.

Nice shooting, and nice rifle! What type of Williams peep sight is it?

I looked at the peep sights and there are no external markings indicating a type or model number.
