Wow, thanks for the trip down memory lane! That is the rifle I learned to shoot with in the NRA in Syracuse in 1969. They had a bunch of them, along with one Winchester 69 or 75, that has led to a lifetime passion of classic 22 target rifles and pistols. I don't know why I do not have one now, but this is going to be solved in the near future to keep my 40X's and 52's company! All great guns and you can use them while they also appreciate as well. Many thanks, Fred.
