I got my first pre 64 in 2005.
It was made in 1956
The owner in Alaska, "Bert" Den herder, was said to have died, but I see now he lived for 6 more years.
He had it re barrelled from 30-06.
He had the barrel counter bored.
He cut off part of the stock but.
The previous owner shot:
2 grizzlies
6 moose
10 mountain goats
6 sheep
109 Sitka Black tailed deer
16 black bear
2 caribou

----------------------------
I paid his nephew $585 with Redfield TV scope.
--------------------------------

I put a 22" Pac Nor featherweight 270 barrel on it.
I put a Bordon Rimrock stock on it.
I put a Leupold scope on it.
I put a Harris bipod on it.
It now weighs 8.9 pounds and kills everything to 400 yards.

-----------------------
A age 56 in 2007 I shot my first deer with it.
I shot 5 deer that year with it.
I shot 4 deer the next year with it.
