He couldn’t come down on price anymore so he threw in 50 rds of military ammo. Wasn’t looking for one but figured, what the heck! Only live once
Can’t wait to shoot it, not sure when. The rifle range is 1 hour away. Last night on an auction site I won a Savage Anschutz model 54 Sporter, will have it in a week to 10 days. The rifle Gods have been watching out for me, Larry

Hey Larry,
Very nice rifle. I really like the Mannlicher stock, and with the Bavarian arched comb. They handle great! The set trigger is nice to have, too. Together, they make for a rifle that can give very fine quick offhand shots. Towards that end, a different scope might be a better choice. But, depends what you'll use it for.
Lucky for you that you have actual gun shows to attend!
Jim
PS: nice score on the Anschütz, too!
(Ever see the nice Anschütz hunting rifles in .222 or 22 Hornet? They're really something!)
