gunsmith thought I should have something different than DGRs, so I ended up with this...
The scope is an original Unertl 16x with adjustable parallax. Kinda like sighting thru a straw:)
But when that gets old, it has an original Redfield aperture sight with Globe front sight.
Not quite a plains game getup...

Awesome. I would love a Pre-64 built similarly to somewhat resemble the rifle Carlos Hathcock used during his 66 tour.
 
There a lot of fine shotguns out there that are now jealous of the fine piece of wood on that rifle.
 
After reading about Carlos Hathcock, I always wanted to try shooting such rifle, with unertl scope.
Beautiful rifle.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
