Sometmes things come together just right

I kinda lucked on to this rifle by accident. Defoor's pawn/gun store had been having a quitting business sale for a couple months and I had almost forgot to swing by there.... but finally did the week before Christmas & most of the shelves were pretty bare. I saw the grip cap of this rifle from the front door. Well after exhausting my superior negotiating skills on the owner I told Dee I'd think about it...so I did for a day then sprinted back down there and paid his asking price, which was actually fair to begin with. It's a NIB 300 Win Mag Finnlight 85. I tried talleys but the ring spacing just would not work...so I switched to the Optilock Extended base w/low rings and they arrived about an hour ago...worked out well with the Z3 4x12x50. Headed to the range this weekend to put it on paper and fireform some brass.

Our Goldens in the background could've cared less.....

Sweet rig. Would be a nice dedicated elk rifle for a guy in MT.

nice rifle. You need at least a 338 for elk though.

That is a sharp set up man. Nice find! (thanks for the pm.)

Nice looking set up. Whats the wight of a bare Finnlight?

I own the exact same setup only in 300 WSM. My swaro scope is the 6x18x50 with the TDS..............Awesome setup... And i'll bet you paid far less for yours

Can't remember exactly, but i'm almost sure it was just under 7 lbs.

I know mine is 9.5 lbs with bullets, bipod, and sling.

6 lb 13 oz.

The short mags are 6 lbs 6 oz.
