Decided to sell this rifle as I am out of room in my safe and have another model 70 on the way that's more practical for hunting in North America. I took this to Africa last year and took several animals with it. It initially had a Kahles K16i on it, but I replaced it with the Meopta Meostar 1.7-10 as soon as I got home. That scope is absolutely perfect for that gun IMO. Glass is superb, 1.7x is low enough for both eyes open, illumination is bright, reticle is very functional for this setup, and 10X is enough to make longer shots. In total the gun has seen 56 rounds and is currently sighted in for the Barnes 300 grain VOR-TX (one box included with package). It's in great condition and I've taken very good care of it. There are some small nicks on the stock from the hunt (see pic). Due to cost of ammo ($4 per) and recoil I never really shot it for groups. However while sighting in the Meostar I took a pic of the first two shots and it's about .5" (pic). I can confidentially say it's sub MOA, and likely 3/4" all day long. Not too bad for a 375HH. According to our PH over there, the 375HH Mag is the perfect caliber to kill anything in the world and he had taken a number of elephants with his over the years. I intended on shooting a whitetail with it last year, but unfortunately never got around to it.

Quote from website - PRE-’64 STYLE CONTROLLED ROUND FEED WITH CLAW EXTRACTOR fully controls the cartridge from magazine, to chamber, to ejection.

I can attest to it slinging the hell out of brass when cycling the bolt. No matter the position.
