That rifle just screams to me that it needs to be rebored into a 35 whelen or a 9.3x62. If I wouldn't have just bought a Belgium Browning BLR last week I would be having this shipped to Pa. then back to Oregon to be rebored. Good luck selling it (or maybe not so that you might still have it when I rebuild my gun fund)... j/k. Seriously someone is gonna end up with a sweet rifle
The barrel contour is probably a little light and may not allow for a 9.3x62 re-bore, but I do agree that someone is going to get a great deal. Congrats to the buyer. I'm sure he will be happy with it.
