Adam,

The bases and rings were just some that were laying around amongst some other stuff, and aren't marked, so I'm not sure who made them. The rifle was originally my grandfathers, and he shot numerous Roe deer with it throughout the years. Unfortunatly, .22 Hornet is now too weak to use for game this size legally, so it is not used much. I shot it quite a lot some years ago, and it's an accurate rifle.

As for the guy wanting some ridiculous amount of money for one, I have to admit that I have no idea what the "going rate" is for them. What did the guy ask for?
