I don't think the recoil pad is original and there's some flaking in the finish on the stock, but the gun overall is in really nice shape. I can keep 270gr Sierras under 1 1/2 @ 100. I would keep it but I really want a '68 to match my 30-30 and 35 Rem. The scope and rings stay with me but I'll leave the rail if you want it, or I can put the factory screws back in it. $700 to your FFL from me. More pictures available if you need them. They say everything happens for a reason. For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.
