Most of the time on the 'Fire there are great posts and pics shared of game taken with rifles that have been tinkered with from one end to the other. It's the rifle loony's curse. Anyone want to post some pics of game taken with rifles that are untinkered with from the factory, other than adjustments made to a factory trigger? I'll start. Win M70 Featherweight (SC BACO), 7x57

I've posted it before, but... M1907, .351 Winchester. Unknown if the tang sight is factory, but I'm guessing it was. there is also... A bone stock #1 .270. I've done nothing to it besides mount the scope. The 2nd load I tried in it easily shot sub-MOA, and is fast, so it gets the nod for deer.

Dad with two does whacked with a SIG SHR 970 .270 that is a stock factory rifle. He even used factory ammo on these two: federal Premium wit the 130 grain Sierra BTSP. Dad with a spike buck killed with the same rifle/load and day as the others:

They shelved the whole Icon idea because they didn't sell....too heavy and wayyy too expensive. Only reason I bought mine is I liked the feel...it was on clearance for half price $399 and there was a $150 rebate on top of that! It IS heavy though at 9.25 lbs all up. But I'm old now and hardly ever carry it anyplace but to the blind!

I've always loved levers and now as I've turned the half century mark, I love them even more.

I need a pump again. Haven't owned one for about 10 years. A 760 in 300 Savage should cure the itch

Everyone in this thread must be mistaken, an unmolested rifle can not harvest big game. Sounds like we've been duped, huh??

Remington 721 30-06 made in 1959.....is amazingly accurate and smooth. Other than the butt pad it's pure factory. Great gun.

Mornin' Shrap, I hear what you are sayin’, but if I were to go back and add irons to these stock factory rifles, then they would no longer be “stock” IMHO. Remington 700 “C” grade, 270 Win. and a "two-fer" Remington 700 LVSF, 17 Remington Remington M7 Predator, 17 Fireball Didn’t have dead animal pix for these two Remington 700 Classic, 250 Savage Remington 700 CDL, SF, LTD, 75th Anniversary 257 Roberts And last but not least, a pix I found from circa 1990 that I scanned in. I had been calling in crows and one lit on a limb about 175 yds. down the easement I was set up on. I winged him and he dropped. While he was laying there flapping, this coyote happened to run out of the brush and grabbed the bird. So I nailed him also. Been so long ago I don’t remember the exact model of the rifle. Laminated Varmint Synthetic or something to that effect. Remington 700, (LVS?) 22-250 Rem. JAPPFT, GWB

If it's factory drilled for scope mount, then it's still factory with a scope.

If it's factory drilled for scope mount, then it's still factory with a scope. Plenty of cars came out with 5 lugs, but once you put on aluminum wheels, it is no longer stock. Screw holes aren't scopes, Lyman 42 peep sights did come on Model 70's so that is considered "stock"...

If I add iron sights, it ain't factory. My Ruger 77 came with RINGS and NO SIGHTS.

You can't be that stupid to understand you have to scope a sightless rifle, but that doesn't make it stock...

IIRC, the OP featured a pix of a scoped rifle as the first pix in the opening post. Consequently, pix of scoped “ factory rifles sans “irons” would seem appropriate. A few more unadulterated “factory” rifles with scope only alterations. Not a trigger job among em’. However, in full disclosure, not one have had a "factory" round down the tube since I've owned them. Can't tell if the ones I purchased pre-enjoyed were used to commit adultery before they followed me home. But that's a minor sin that can be forgiven.

For Pete's sake. Let's not suck the fun out of the thread entirely. I was just interested to see what folks have done with rifles that haven't been blue-printed, stocks changed, barrels swapped, etc. Yes, a rifle without sights needs iron or glass. Shrap, God bless your eyes. I can't read the newspaper without glasses much less see iron. If we carry a rifle much it will need a sling or strap. But I don't think adding a scope or sling is quite the same as having the entire rig so reworked that the only thing left that's original is the firing pin.

Nice thread RevMike. First deer and first centerfire, 1980 Rem 700 BDL Custom Deluxe 22-250. Amazing that 1 in 14" worked. Disclaimer: pad and receiver sight added. Ruger 77 Hawkeye Predator 6.5 Creedmoor in the open country "back east". Cheeckpad, bedded, railed, slinged, bi-podded, yet still factory to me. That buck was cheese burgers tonight. Excellent eating.

A few more that have/had “irons” that were factory before the “telescopic sighting” alterations. Sako Riihimaki, (circa 1955) 222 Rem.

I was in a tree a 1/4 mile away & gave her the go-ahead to use my buck tag too.
