Thanks Daryl.
I think it will be for someone that likes the classic old style rifles.
It's got a new barrel and stock or course. It shoot VERY well.
I left it in the original 7.62X54R. I can't see anything wrong with the old caliber. It has weights to use between 150 grains up to about 200 grains so it should be fine for open country antelope or moose in the woods, and I made a 2 blade iron sight that is zeroed at 150 and 300 meters.

High quality bullets are available from most makers. I bet you can get 7.62X54R ammo in about any country that firearms are allowed to the people.

I polished the action and with the long bolt handle its easy to work from the shoulder.

For an all-around hunting rifle I think it will serve very well.
