The PSS rifles haven't been made for over 20 years, they switched to the 700P designation after that. The "P" means it's parkerized, not polish blue. Aside from that, they're pretty much the same as the varmint models. That's not a knock, I have a few 700s and they're all great shooters.

A barrel from 59 is unusual, since the 700 wasn't introduced until 1962. Not sure what to make of that. Remington's traditionally have long throats, and from your observations, yours does not. It sounds like you have a rifle that may have been put together to emulate the M24 system. Maybe the action was trued or possibly even blueprinted when the barrel was installed? From the pics, it looks like all quality parts were used. Even the sling is a match sling, with the numbered holes. A new Ron Brown sling is $100 these days. It has a quick detach swivel at the back, and lots of guys use the sling on their bicep, along with the bipod in prone, it's even steadier with the sling. I see the palmswell on the stock too, so that's almost 100% an HS Precision stock, which is another great thing. Yours seems to be exactly like the rifles that I've seen guys build themselves, and they customize them to their own desires. Some go with bottom metal that takes detachable mags, some stick with the stock 700 hinged versions. Honestly, I think all this makes it even more interesting than a stock rifle.
Yeah this is a factory gun through and through. All of this supposedly is what this model shipped with. I don't think the previous owner had much time with it. From what I was told, he installed it in his bench vise and never really got around to it.

Here is a write up on the PSS.
