The LGS here in Idaho had a pretty mint one on consignment for $470. I thought about it overnight and headed back today. I asked if they could do any better on price. The salesman went in a back room for a bit and returned saying they could do $400. Nice clean 4X Redfield included. I have wanted one of these for years.

It has been a lot of years since I have seen one that nice for that few dollars, when considering the scope value you really did well.
I always liked the 541T better than the 541S, IMO the 541S was a little overdone with the scrollwork.

Congrats

Nice score, Ed.

I "stole" one like you did about five years ago. It was unfired. Feed it Norma TAC/Match, SK Pistol Match or UM822 and it ought not disappoint!

Heading out to shoot it in two days. What Remington once was I suppose... My boy's were happy. I'll fly it back to Texas with my Win M77 I picked up here earlier this summer.

You thief!!! laugh laugh laugh

Those babies shoot - and shoot very well... Stoked with Eley ammo and watch the holes meet... Wonderful trigger (can't believe I'm sayin' that.. laugh laugh ) that can be adjusted down to very small weights.. Mine breaks at 4 oz..

Congrats on the purchase.... You did well.

Thought I had enough .22 bolt guns. Now I'm jealous.

EdM: Great find there - like others have touched on YOU stole that Rifle/scope combination!
Good for you.
My heavy barrel Remington 541-T has a Weaver KT-15 (straight 15 power) scope on it and it shoots like a house on fire!
Be sure to let us know how it shoots.

That’s a really good deal. I love my 541-S and have thought about a 541-T many times but couldn’t justify both.
