G'Day Fella's,

Nice rifle Rick R!

An old mate of mine (Arthur C) had two Whitworth Rifles both in .458 Win Mag (for Sambar Deer). If I remember correctly, they were both built on Mk X M98 type actions (Zastava) and all the metal work was highly polished. The name Whitworth was highlighted in gold paint(?)on the receiver.
Sorry but I can't remember anything about the stocks and express sights, to be of much assistance to you!
The button on the Redfield sight, looks to be a retainer/release, to make elevation adjustments?

So Rick, tell us a bit more about this rifle, like caliber etc.

HooRoo
