One question I would have is has the trigger been homesmithed? If you get it, I would look a replacing the trigger with an aftermarket trigger.

Recently on a different hunting forum, a member posted his 700 fired as he chambered a round and nothing was near the trigger. At least two other members said they had the same experience with a Remington 700. I do not know if any of these triggers were adjusted outside of the factory.

How does the muzzle crown, chamber, bolt and rifling look? I would also check to make sure the stock is not cracked.
