Does my new to me Howa Dickson Golden Bear in 30-06 count for an L61R? 😎 "...aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you, so that you may walk properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one." - Paul to the church in Thessalonica.

You can notice their color from across the room. Only thing close to them is the older Browning Safaris. Side note: My collecting is all Savage 99s and Pre 64 Model 70s. In that order.

The Golden Bear is a L61R clone. “Soon after Howa releasing the Howa M300, the company began working on a new type of a hunting rifle in order to meet the demand for large-caliber bolt-action rifles in Japan. During the development, the designers used the Finnish SAKO L61R "Finnbear" as basis of the design.” "...aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you, so that you may walk properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one." - Paul to the church in Thessalonica.
