SELLING Custom .270 rifle

[Mel Hoover]

I have a custom FN commercial 98 Mauser rifle in .270 Winchester for sale. It has a 24 inch barrel and the barreled action is high polished and blued. The bore is clean and rifling sharp.The rifle is beautifully done with a stock by Shawn Roland of Shunk, PA. A conservative satin finish enhances the pure classic AA walnut stock. The checkering is patterned after the Winchester Model 52 Sporter with diamonds on the sides of the forend and smaller diamonds on the bottom of the forearm. There are no marks on this lovely stock. It has a 3 position Winchester Model 70 type safety, a blued steel grip cap, and a red British style 1 inch recoil pad. A Timney trigger is set at 2 1/2 pounds. The rifle is styled after the classic Rigby which is also a commercial FN but priced at over $15,000. My rifle is well underpriced at $950. We can split shipping .costs. Contact Mel Hoover at 570-3681332.

Very nice rifle at a great price! Are the sling swivel studs standard or the two screw custom style?

Standard studs as 2 screw studs were too costly. I have $1200 in rifle and 2 screw studs would have increased price $150-crazy. Thanks for your comment.
