John, Can you tell us a little more about the .243 pictured in your article in the March Rifle? It looks like it may be a 1936 Mexican. Thanks --- Mel

That's what it is.
I found that rifle on the consignment rack at Capital Sports & Western Wear in Helena, Montana at such a low price I couldn't pass it up. There's nothing to indicate who made it, but whoever it was knew what they were doing. It shoots great!

Cool!

I once had one in 358 with an English-styled stock, replete with short rigby style forend, and foolishly sold it
