Pur-dee gun.

I'm prone to elegant single shots to begin with, but accurate, elegant SS's are just too nice.

Beautiful rig sir!

Nice looking rig, friend. How does it group? A buddy of mine bought an unfired #1, in 220 swift, for $500 from some poor guy getting divorced. When we took it to the range he fired several 3 shot groups at 100 yds in the .5 to .75 range with factory ammo and a cheap 3x9 using a chunk of 4x4 as a rest. He asked if that was good! Yes, he is new at this. I was tempted to lie and then ask if he wanted to sell it. I have suggested a custom trigger and maybe a more suitable varmint scope, carefully crafted reloads . . . .

Rifle groups very well. It is a bit finiky about seating depth but shoots sub .50 groups with 87 Vmax, 55 Ballistic Tips and 70 Nosler BTHP Match. It has fired three groups under .175!
