Could not agree more. I have yet to see a modern american Classic that wouldn't benefit from a few more hours on the bench. At that they are tauted as being so very trim and handy when compared to a mass produced sporter. The "magic' of these Edwardian era Bolt rifles is indeed there simplicity, there trim-ness, there "economy" of extras.

As to the scoped rifles. I own more than a few. They have there place, here in the High Plains of my Home. There was a certain 30/378 that ruled the Prairie. My current LR set up is rather ponderous 6.5x284. There is also a very trim stainless/plastic Tikka 6.5mm. With its 4x Zeiss, battue bolt handle and trench mag it is just the thing for a cull or driven shoot, but as trim as it is compared to its modern counterparts, it is a leviathan when seated next to a Lee Speed. Probably not any better as well.


I do apologize to Mr Coker for the wandering of his thread.
