SN 86166. Cal. 32-40. Helm pattern Schuetzen rifle with No. 5 Winchester bbl with rarely found top 3 flats matted. Bbl is 32″ long, full oct. and has Winchester scope blocks mounted. The front sight is a simple ivory bead with a rear sight that is a correct Winchester vernier tang. The blued action is fitted with double set triggers and a lever which is case colored but doesn’t fit correctly, possibly it is bent. The checkered buttstock has extra grade wood of pleasing character. The buttplate has been crudely modified but would be easily converted back to orig. The forearm is checkered and fitted with an orig Winchester palm rest base, a Stevens Pope palm rest has been fitted to it.

CONDITION: Owned by an avid target shooter and all target shooters had to make adjustments to make the rifle “perfect”. The palm rest as stated is not orig, but the base is Winchester. The bore is excellent. Blue is thinning, especially where its been shot on a rest on the underside of the bbl and on the sharp edges. Stock finish on forearm and buttstock is considerably worn and probably could be upgraded considerably with a couple coats of wax. The under lever as stated does not fit correctly. As stated the helm buttplate has been modified. The stock is proud of the action and there is a small space between the action and the buttstock. 50594-67 (4,750-7,000) C&R; IVORY – Lot 4196
