Ok, just a little story first before play time.
Yesterday, a citizen brings up a flyer to our PD trying to sell a rifle. It was a Savage tactical .308 with a decent scope, bipod and sling. He was asking $700 bucks for it. By the time I got to work, saw the ad and called him it was gone. So for grins, I log on to gunbroker and search for a similar rifle. Up pops this one particular rifle which was very gently used, has a custom duracoated camo stock, moly coated barrel and sling. Very much a really nice and very accurate rifle with a fair amount of custom work done to it. I then noticed that the auction didnt have a reserve price and that the highest bid was $450 bucks.
Not really thinking, I just bid $460 on the rifle and then saw that the auction had only 90 minutes remaining. To make a long story short, I picked this gem up for only $455! Those who know these rifles, know that they are a good buy. As a matter of fact, Carlos Hathcock swore by them for their out of the box accuracy. Now all I need to do is find a decent scope for it and I'll be done!
So here it is, without further ado:D
