Pappy, too funny. YES, that WAS my hat!
Yup, I don't think I ever saw another M S in .358 Win. I bought this one a bunch of years ago from a gun shop. I have its twin with double set triggers and an 18" barrel instead of 20" in 6.5x54.
He shot a coyote with it this year.
He is the best hunting partner I ever had. Gonna miss him one of these days. He is trying to get into med school.
