RKW is the name of the Dupont finish used on the earlier 700s. I liked the mid-'70s cut checkering a bunch, then they bollixed that up and I went to other rifles.

The RKW finish was used for bowling pins, I think. Harder than a weddin' peter, too.


You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.
