Hardly a hijack. A splendid rifle and a very good find.

It is, like the one above, a 7x57 with the sight regulated for the 140 grain bullet. The flat shooting champion when it was designed.

Something about British Bolts that always seem to feel right. Some Euro rifles have the same feeling but very few, if any, American rifles have it.

You should be very happy with it if you can shoot open sights. Please, do not ruin the the rifle by attempting to put scope mounts on it.
