That's not a first year model Sendero. That might be a first year model Sendero SF, but it is not a first year Sendero. The VERY FIRST (original) Senderos were all blued finish, with heavy barrels (non-fluted), jeweled bolt, and the iconic HS Precision stock.

That is not a first year model Sendero SF either. Sendero's are long actions. These are actually VSSF's. Varmint Synthetic Stainless Fluted.

Yes jarodjohns !!!!! You don't know how many people I meet that want to sell me a "SENDERO" and it in some varmint round!! Don't get me wrong they all shoot good most of the time ...but to me if its a "sendero" it will say sendero. Nothing personal mighttman!! Just venting ..sorry

Being a Sendero and VSSF "enthusiast" I will actually throw another curveball into this. I have personally had and sold about 15 Sendero SF's that were not labeled Sendero. You can call Remington and give them the serial number and they will tell you it is a Sendero Stainless Fluted and the caliber. I've had a few of the original matte Sendero's that are not labeled Sendero although the majority have been marked.

Are my eyes playing tricks on me or do I see a j-lock?

No personal offense taken......I am not the Sendero expert (or any expert for that matter), just posted it as I saw the ad...you guys sorted it out...

Oh crap! It is a short action. Yep, you're right. VSSF it is!

Good call Jarrod, I wasn't even paying attention to chamber length or caliber.

This is 100% true.

My factory Sendero SF 7mm STW is not stamped "SENDERO" anywhere on it. And I ordered it brand new directly from Remington, when I worked at the local outdoors store, back in 2002.

Also, a very select few of the original Sendero rifles (blued, non-fluted heavy barrel) were chambered in 7mm STW, and were also not stamped "SENDERO" after the caliber. I have one of those barrels sitting in my gun room right now, awaiting me to buy a donor action to build a nice rifle out of it.

My 2002 Sendero SF came from Remington with a J-Lock on it.

If it was a Sendero SF model, believe it or not, that wasn't that bad of a price. I've seen SF 7mm STW's go for $1,600+ for the bare rifle...USED. Ordered mine new back in 2002...Prices were alot different back then. LOL
