That’s how I bought a like new .300 Wby Mark V at a bargain. Only fired twice by original owner. Judging by how the Leupold 3-9x40 was mounted, he/she/it probably needed a few stitches too. LOL!
P. S. A friend of mine who is a pretty stout fellow and an experienced rifleman said his Tikka T3 .300 WSM was the worst recoiling rifle he has ever owned. He finally put on a heavy laminate stock and added weight to tame it somewhat.
