Just out of curiosity, what happened to the original stock?
 
Ok, don't beat me up too bad over this question. I understand that this rifle is a .284 caliber, but could you please tell me what cartridge it takes?

I suspect it is chambered in 284 Winchester, which was a cataloged item for the Safari Grades in the 1960's, utilizing the same Browning-specific Sako L579 action variant that was used for the medium length cartridges like 22-250, 243, and 308 Winchester.

Good Evening. I am very interested in you hunt for the spiral slam. March in 2028 would be fine for me

Couple of quick questions:

1) Can we add some additional species on
2) what do you want for a deposit?
3) how do you want me to sign up

I'm on whats app or email

have a great evening
