Found this one in a pawn shop recently. Rough around the edges but not to bad. Steel floorplate. Smooth round bolt knob and 18.5" barrel it had a one piece leupold base on it and an old vari x 2 3-9x40 leupold on it (surprisingly clear glass. Bluing is worn in several places but nonetheless a solid gun I got it for $379 out the door. Just have to make time to start the cleaning process

My old man had one back late 80’s, early 90’s I used to borrow every now and again. Like to find another

I had one with a 2x7 Redfield on it. Previous owner had bobbed the stock to 12.5" for his kids. No fixing the stock without replacing it. Could have put wood on and worked it down with a new pad. Biggest problem was at a minimum the barrel is 3.5" too short. Clean it up, shoot it some and scavenge the scope off it replace with an old 4x cheapy.
. Then sell it to someone else for 450 -500 dollars. And find a 6mm with a 22" barrel. You asked. MB
