Just acquired this factory custom shop beauty from 1999 last week. And just had to share here. One of a kind as far as I know, never seen another Classic in 308 with a Sporter barrel.

Bery nice!
5 digit serial number I assume? All the four digits I've seen have not had the ebony foreend.

That one looks like it was done right. Very nice!!
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Beauty. Redneck had a similar .260 Rem once IIRC.

I hope it shoots. Then again, I'm sure it's fine.
Yes, that's a nice looking rifle in a great cartridge. It should serve you well..
