I just won the auction on this rifle. Don't know if it's a bad deal, good deal, or an excellent deal. Anyway I thought it was an attractive piece and quite frankly didn't think my bid would win the auction. I'll let y'all know how it shoots once it gets in. Here's a pic and a link to the auction. Hmm, seems that the picture got "squished" but you'll get the idea. Has a 24" barrel and a 13.5" LOP.

Nice looking rifle with classic lines. I like the bolt handle, it’s a nice size for the rifle.

Let us know how it shoots Jake. I did a google search on it. Seems some guys had issues with the magazine and the spring release.

Looks nice and it looks like a shooter. Really like that old scope. Have fun with it Jake.
