Nice rig for a lot of hunting scenarios. I was always a fan of the 600's and 660's panache. Wish they had offered them wrong handed, but such is the life of a lefty.

12 or so years ago I foolishly sold off a gloss finish Japan
Weaver V3 that came on a used 308 model 88 that I bought. IIRC, I didn't ask much for it, either.
