I bought mine in the summer of 1961. Didn't get a scope on it until the following summer. Shot mostly 150-grain Core-Lokts, and they went into 3 inches or so at 100 yards pretty consistently. When I went back to Austin for the beginning of my sophomore year of college, I dropped it off with an old gunsmith downtown who tweaked the bedding and the trigger for me. It has shot ammo it likes sub-moa, ever since.

I had it redone with a nice walnut blank and a new blue job several years ago, and it still goes deer and elk hunting with me at least once or twice each year.

Some days it takes most of the day for me to do practically nothing...
