Very nice looking rifle. I want one, but then again there isn't many rifles that I don't want. Thanks for sharing the photos with us and hope to see a range report in the future.

I have one with a 4 groove barrel. This 03A3 was used by the Arizonia Guard Shooting team years ago. I shoot cast bullets in the old girl it is very accurate. Thx for posting your 03A3.

Very nice 03. I have one that was Bubbaized before I got it, sure wish it wasn't. It shoots great but it still isn't pure. The only thing I would do to that one is shoot it and wipe down the stock with some linseed to preserve it.
