Very nice and finally so nice to see a scope mounted as it should be, as low as possible. I used an M65 and then an M60 S&L rifle, both chambered for the 7x61 S&H magnum cartridge, for several decades of hunting and had a 6X Kahles scope mounted in low 26mm original Weaver rings on Weaver bases. Had to take a small scallop out of the chamber taper on the S&L barrel which had a longer taper than that on the Lothar barrel to give slight clearance to the Kahles objective bell. The 26" S&L factory barrels were superb as were the triggers, and the actions as smooth as glass.

The action well suited the belted magnum case. I don't think I have ever seen a factory rifle so perfectly put together, as smooth to operate and as accurate. Look at that massive lockup, just can't be beat.

Great workmanship to create the custom job you have but you did have the best to work with after all.
