This would be my third model 71. I have one that I bought last year for 1100 that has a scope on one of the weird side mounts in 348-450 AI. I traded four trade fodder hunting guns for a 20 inch model 71 in 348 that was owned and used by Harley King and it is featured in Into Kodiak Country by Fred Bear. Harley is holding it while Fred is skinning the bear.

[Linked Image from i.ibb.co] It is missing a swivel but it is who owned it and how it was used that makes it interesting.

I bought another Pre-64 Model 70 standard in 270 win with a 3-9 Leupold that was also owned by Harley that was made in 1953 for 650.00 last year.
