Bought a pre-64 FW in 270 Winchester yesterday at what I consider a steal.
It came with a Lyman receiver sight already mounted, the fold down rear sight is in place, all metal is in very good shape and complete, no extra holes, no pitting and the bore is pristine.
It also came with a 2.5-8 B&L scope in a set of Beuhler rings with a base that has a couple knurled wheels for adjusting scope height I suppose.
The stock has some really nice figure in it and is uncut, LOP is about 13.5" down to a plastic butt plate, swivels are complete and in good condition.
The little rifle needs a front sight hood and was covered very heavily with what I suspect is a polyurethane finish on the stock, it's being stripped off as I type so it will need a correct refinish on the wood.
Question is, would you men hunt this rifle with the receiver peep sight and say some 160 gr Partitions, or install the scope and run the 150 gr Partitions for a bit more range, I kinda like the idea of trying the receiver sight.
