Not sure the age of the rifle, I'm the third or fourth owner. John Barsness used to own this one. That made load-development a snap as he'd published loads he worked up for this particular rifle!

It's been around at least 15 years I'd guess. I've had it on several bear & elk hunts. John took it to Africa, twice I believe.

Standard Ruger rings, 1.5-5x Leupold sighted in at 200 yards. Works great!
