Hi elkhunternm, May I ask why did you put a Leupold 3x instead that great Refield Bear Cub 4x32...? Thanks! PH Originally Posted by elkhunternm Not very good pics,but here is the nicest one I own.

I think it was a better match for the .223 than the Weaver 6x that was on it. The Leupold 3x was on a .375 RUM and I have Zeiss 4x in the gunsafe,so I took the Leupold off the RUM and put it on the .30/06 and put the Zeiss on the RUM.

However, I think it needs more of a sagebrush type camo job... You know those jackrabbits will see that realtree pattern. Hmmmm......

Here is a cool write up I found on Brownell, guess this rifle was made in 1965 going by this paper. https://americansocietyofarmscollec...rd-M-Brownell-1933-1982-A-Custom-Gun.pdf I have a whole bunch of 7mm Partitions and BBC's so I think I'll be able to find something this rifle likes. Need to check it for twist, but I'd assume it has to be 10 or better. Semper Fi
