i would jump in a new york minute on a light slim double barrel in 30-30 win-or a 38-55 win at the right price.

it could be fixed with some sort welding, but would most likey fail in and other area. it maybe time to hang in on the wall and remember the good times he had a field hunting with it.

standing on the road, in the woods a tikka T3 in .223 hunting fall turkeys. in the woods hunting deer a left hand remington 700 SA in 7mm08 . both very good shooters.

very good buy, i have the same rifle in 7mm08 and paid more.

and gone they have went, last sat. i turned 82 and am still able to get around pretty good. i fish-hunt- shoot-trap and do alot of walking yet, tho a little slower and i don,t hunt the rocky points anymore.
