I also like the SS classics. Really the best of both worlds.

So you just beat up on the collectors every so often to try to keep the prices down?

Okay Slavek its a 52 or later.... give some details man!!! It appears to be a '59 or newer and from the crappy picture, looks to be a 300 H&H. I'll guess 1961 on the DOM... Hard to tell. Am I close??

I do not wish to sound like a broken record. It's the only hunting rifle I own. I have two different scope for it. It was made in ca. 1959. [img:left] [/img]

If you're only going to own one I can't imagine much better of a choice than the one you have.

My left hand stainless classic in 06. Bought new in the late 90's. Great rifle. VERY accurate.

I have seen them for first time ca 1994 at two story gun shop on road from Athens to Atlanta. Pretty neat looking gun and great one gun to have choice. Big plus is ammo can be had 24hrs a day at Walmart.

Somebody who spotted the drilled bolt handle, but missed the plastic butt plate. The rounded bolt sleeve is also a dead give away...

That was me who said 52 or later, as in 52 or later production. Or made after 52. However one interprets it.
