Sounds like a real nice rifle. Good luck with the sale!!
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

It's a gorgeous rifle, chambered in a really cool cartridge and if I had the extra money around I would already own it. I hope it's ok that I took the liberty of adding some of the photos. ![[Linked Image]](http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu315/CatamountRob/Mobile%20Uploads/photo_zpsecf87019.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu315/CatamountRob/Mobile%20Uploads/photo_zpsb296821d.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu315/CatamountRob/Mobile%20Uploads/photo_zpsf067f0ea.jpg)

Anyone who would approach this rifle with a reamer should be shot.
