Reasons for sale here: https://www.africahunting.com/threads/solar-tax-credit.107377/
I purchased this fine rifle just under a year ago.
A few weeks after the purchase I suffered a major heart attack (widow-maker was 100% blocked), so other than mounting a 1.5-5 Leupold and getting it on paper, this rifle has been in the safe.
I believe I was able to purchase at a very fair price for this outstanding example and am willing to sell at the price I paid, $17k. Wife said don't sell at a loss, so I am sticking to that advice! The dollar has weakened since then, so you are actually getting a discount!
You will note the serial number is from the 80s (on the Authentication Certificate and engraved and inlaid on the trigger guard and the forward scope ring), but the Certificate from Max Quigly indicates a completion date of 1993. The rifle was commissioned in the 80s and assigned the serial number, then the build was suspended/cancelled and subsequently resurrected in 1993.
PM and I can get you my mobile if you want to discuss.
I prefer FTF. If I have to ship, willing to split costs.
Edit: I should have mentioned - yes, that is an H&H scope mount. On and off quickly and a very expensive option!
