Thanks guys! I knew I would get a "rise" out of MD...Just teasing you as I don't "really" believe you get to keep any rifles you tested, nor do I believe you were sent "on their dime" to Timbuktoo for Marco Polo Sheep! smile ha If I can't figure it out when I get the rifle back, I'll give this number a call, thanks again. I was put into the Texas Nat'l Guard when I got out of Active Duty, 1973. In 1975, I was at a NG Drill one weekend in Beaumont, Tx and stopped by the "Texas Gunman" GS. They had a Mark X "Cavalier" mannlicher carbine...in 7x57! I just happened to have recently married (Dec 1973) my True Love and "something happened"...I ended up in '74 with Twin Girls! So, no, I had no spending money in which to buy that beautiful 7x57! So sad...so I know they were made that far back anyhow. smile
