Here the first (LH) mark is the final inspector mark, the O represents July, the R would be 1968. The fourth digit being a 3 is inconsequential being an assembly number.

Here the R represents November, & the ZZ would be 1953. The one on the right again a 30-06, but with a shorter barrel that I made into a knock around quad rifle with pivot mounts. This has been rebored to a 35 Whelen Improved. Both were taken off Remington 760s, with the one on the left, a 30-06 that I bought new October 10, 1954.

The factory says all barrels are date code stamped, well I have found some that are not, or if they are, are so erratic stamping that trying to decipher them is impossible. The above information was taken from Remington's own information sheet, so if your gun may not conform, then I am also at a loss in explaining. The demand of new REMINGTON 4 ROLLING BLOCK rifle's has not changed over the past 12 months. The used value of a REMINGTON 4 ROLLING BLOCK rifle has risen 172.45 dollars over the past 12 months to a price of 502.36. The 12 month average price is 502.36 used.

This is important as about all obsolete parts suppliers use ONLY factory or closely associated numbers where ever possible so everyone is on the same page. Then if the gun is ever subsequently returned to a warranty center or the factory by ANYONE, they will refuse to work on it as an unsafe firearm. The illustration shown below was taken from Frank de Haass Single Shot Rifle book with the part numbers changed to reflect factory part numbers. If a gun is returned to the factory as a fire damaged, or blown up firearm, the factory will stamp it as a prefix to their date code with a #4 on the barrel and return it un-repaired.
