Beautiful rifle. You don't say whether it's a professional hot blued finish or cerakote, durakote etc... A couple things tell me it's made before '53, but the first 3 digits of the serial # would be nice. Thanks..
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

Two in 1 day? LOL! Ray Montgomery is/was a perfectionist. I have several that he built for me and he does nothing but fantastic work.

Rifle has a polished blue finished. Serial# is 730XX. The only bullets I shot through this rifle was 150 grain Partitions and TSX's. Partitions grouped at 1.5 inches at 200 and the TSX's went under an inch at 200 and a tight clover leaf at 100.

Sounds great Nathaniel. Great price on a beautiful custom rifle. Rifle originally built in '47 according to the serial # you give. I'm surprised it doesn't have the transition style safety lever. This should also have the clover leaf tang.

It is a clover tang and the barrel that came off was marked 48.
