Beautiful rifle. I think Ackley's rifles are outstanding examples of gunsmithing and they get over shadowed by all the cartridge development. Nice that it has the classic stock and no Californication look to it. I beleave the original owner was well recognized in Sheep hunting circles so nice provenance for the rifle.
