Hope the seller follows through with putting a couple compasses inside the stock before he ships it.. he was partial to the idea. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
And thanks to all that might have seen it and didn't post it... this is one that didn't go to lurkers.

Congratulations, nice looking rifle.
Everything you now do is something you have chosen to do. Some people don't want to believe that. But if you're over age twenty-one, your life is what you're making of it. To change your life, you need to change your priorities.

Hey , Congrats on the Gun I haven't posted much on here since joining, but I just had to congratulate you on winning that 1895. I was watching to see what it would bring. I haven't gotten to the point of chasing 95's---YET! The 99's seem to keep me broke enough. Congrats on the gun

Out of my reach Les, Im a acumulator, not a collector <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Again, good grab. Do you paint them pink befor or after you put the compass in?

Only have one with a Compass, that is my T, but damn, I think the compass helps it out, that thing is a straight shooter. Still, I will probably get it fixed, unless I find a stith mount for it. Found a POS EG in 300 Savage here in the springs, lever is all bent to crap, but it has a Stith with a Weaver w/post reticle for 459.00 may pick it up flip the rifle and keep the scope. Can probably talk them down too 400. Les
