I haven't checked yet. I appreciate the offer, but I couldn't except with all the .257 caliber bullets I have stocked for my Roberts.

Going to send an email tonight. I would love to find out who ordered it. Id imagine it was ordered as a woodchuck rifle.

The only good gun I even saw at the Helena gun show was this same gun in 250-3000. I wouldn't mind owning it, except for the $6000.00 price tag on it...

Yep, I figured if I priced it too low someone would want to buy it! It was the most popular rifle on my table. I think even my wife secretly likes it, she gave me a pretty hard time as I was casing it up to put in the truck.

I found a G&H side mount with a M84 scope at the Billings gun show a few years ago for $1200. It was an original M1C mount and I ended up trading it for a type 2 NM M1 Garand in 99.9% condition.
