No 340W it started life as an XTR fresh from Frank O`Reillys in Melb for $320 with two packers of crackers and a long time ago which the price reflects of course.
Some of the toys used chronologically below.

12x Leupold
4x wide angle Bushnell
2x7 Leupold
3.5-10x44 Zeiss

timber original stock that i cashed for $150 (spewing)followed
A hand built fibreglass stock which possibly was the first FG stocked rifle to take a trophy stag in Aus in the early `80`s

Bell + Carlson stock around 19 years ago

another B+C a few months ago

New Mab barrel only picked up last week!

Yes she is a old warrior too and is one of those firearms that is almost part of ones self when out hunting,might not look pretty but well and often used firearms dont after a life time in the bush no matter how hard one tries to look after them they inevitably cop their fair share of hard work especially in the high country hunting for sambar.

note the internal sling mounts and super sling which came with the original B+C,I hated the look of it when it arrived but it has worked like a dream for all those years.

The other two deer rifles are easy to leave in the safe as I reach for her.

--------------------
Get off the chair away from the desk and get out in the bush and enjoy life.
