Good choice, good caliber and a fine looking rifle to boot. Now mount a nice Leupold 2X7 on her and you will be all set.

Thanks now I just have to learn to maintain it. It's my first wood stocked rifle.

Its the same as any other in my opinion. The only thing I do is wipe it down once I get back to the car if the weather is no good. Sometimes ill put some gun oil on the stock but usually not. One of the things I want to buy but haven't gotten around to it is something called Renaissance wax. Its a synthetic wax with a crystalline structure that really helps seal moisture out and improves the look of the wood.

I'm going to look into that wax. Thanks

Wood stock, blue steel, NO SIGHTS and best of all, a controlled round feed action copied directly from the M98!

 

Good choice.

 

Find some of this.

 

Soak a rag with it and use it to wipe down the EXTERIOR of the rifle and polish with a soft clean cloth. It is a wax based compound and it will preserve as well as nourish the wood. It will also protect the metal from rust. DO NOT use it on moving parts as it will get tacky in cold weather.
