Key specifications and features

Action and metalwork

The bolt action is notably smooth with a tight lockup, consistent with Mauser engineering. The barrel is bright, bore condition described as good, and the muzzle is in excellent shape. Metal finish on the barrel is in Very Good condition and most bluing remains intact.

Stock, ergonomics and accessories

Wood is smooth and attractive in Very Good condition. The rifle carries a JC Higgins ventilated recoil pad (Good condition) and an attached leather replica sling listed as Very Good. The safety has been modified to work with the current scope mounting, and the trigger breaks cleanly after a measurable takeup.

Optics and zeroing notes

The mounted Bushnell Banner II 1.5-4x is clear and provides a crisp reticle; the owner reports it is zeroed at 200 yards. Note: the magnification knob did not move during inspection and remaining set at 4x — we did not force or repair it. Prospective buyers should factor this when evaluating sighting adjustments.
