It had a very nice guild style walnut stock with decent figure, claw mounts and a vintage German scope, tasteful if not reserved scroll engraving and sported buffalo horn butt plate, grip cap and a little schnabel forend. It was chambered in 257 Bob. He refused to sell it to me, but I'll keep working on him.
I like it quite a bit. It is built on a 98 FN Supreme Mauser. Ive got a standard 257 Roberts on a nazi 98, and a Ruger no1. The FN is the prettiest though. I don’t hot rod the Ackley, and get about 100fps more than the standard ones.
