If that's the one that was in Holts then I was going to bid on it but got a bit distracted with family matters.... damn!

Hope you enjoy it.

If it shoots half a well as it looks you will have a jewel

Nice...Love the full matted rib and tang safety.The Lee Speed might be the best designed bolt action rifle for "quick life or death" shooting!

That is one beautiful rifle! Congratulations and please do remember to post more rifle and hunting pics when she reaches you. You, sir, are a man of very fine taste!

Good hunting!

Few rifles have such beautifully clean lines. The 1905 Ross is another. Probably a little faster on the bolt too.
