Looks line mine were built during the 1992 to 2006 period. Mine were acquired after '92 but before 2000. Most but a few have been sold off for lack of use and funding for other projects. Did at one time have all of the Supergrades, five I think. ![[Linked Image from imagizer.imageshack.com]](https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/xq70/922/mqhjCb.jpg) Sweet rifles. You sure do like to rebarrel them though. May I ask why? Generally the model 70's shoot well. Even the featherweights. The rifle on the bottom must be a WSM. Nice collection.. Re the WSM, you are correct! It was built from a 308 I believe and was lots of trouble, new mag follower, modified ejector, open bolt face and then had to mill the receiver ejection opening back a bit after it was all completed as empties would not eject. In the end, it turned out to be a great shooter and very nice rifle.

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
