My old 404 Jeff - Model 70 action from 1953
24/01/14 07:24 AM

I have had this rifle for many years. Wish I could tell some exciting stories about hunting dangerous game with it but alas it has only taken whitetail deer with cast bullets in my hands. Maybe someday....

It is on a Model 70 action from 1953 with a supergrade stock put together by the famous gunsmith PO Ackley. It has a Paul Jaeger side mount for the 1.5 to 5x leupold scope. A lyman receiver sight can be used instead of the scope. There is no rear sight. It has a kynoch brass case head inletted in the stock forearm where the sling stud used to be. The stock has no cross bolts but is well fiberglassed and has never shown any sign of cracking.

While not fancy by any means, it feeds smoothly and reliably and is quite accurate.
