A classics a classic. Sometimes you see something and you just kinda have to. Haven't shot it yet, need to find a mounting solution. Leupold tubes too short. Its very, very clean overall though. Nice feeling and handling rifle. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/kgJCHGtm/20220524-194430-resized.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/VN0VZP4w/20220524-194448-resized.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/rmLQh0KG/20220524-194454-resized.jpg) Had one long ago, took a few deer with it, handled and shot well, used a 6x42 scope and 120 CL's were deadly. Tripped it like so many others. Enjoy your Swede Classic. Btw, I ran Leupold DDs on mine.......

I got away from dual dovetails because unless everything (receiver ring relative heights, screw hole alignments) is just right they will stress a scope.

They other one came, bid 806.00 for it, never expected to get it for 805.00. I did the same thing with a Sako 7 mag not long ago. I’m not doing that again. Two 300 Wby, one 300 H&H, one 257 Boberts. I’d like a 25-06. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/7ZCYLGSH/8-FFCF063-EC38-4-BCD-B329-CFFC10-F10-B1-E.jpg)

I have one of those 700 Classics in Swede. I have another one in 375 H&H and I used to have one in 350 Rem Mag. They are great rifles. I am always looking for one in 7x57 and if I ever find one it is going home with me.
You get out of life what you are willing to accept. If you ain't happy, do something about it!
