re: Remington 700 ADL vs BDL

ADL - base model, hidden magazine
BDL - Hinged floor plate, fancy checkering

This. The ADL is still a fine model 700. Whether it's an ADL or BDL, the 700 action and barrel are the same. Growing up, my best friend had an ADL. It was a good gun. If you buy the ADL and later decide you want the hinged floor plate instead of the blind magazine, you can convert it w/ a kit bought from Brownell's, but it ain't cheap….
