Concur-- This is indeed a fine custom Sporting rifle- built in 1974 for the late Fred McCord of Ionia, MI- by his brother, Dave McCord-- the gunsmith.
It has a B&L 3x9 Vari-Power scope in the Buehler 1 piece base mounts- std. 1" rings. To my eyes, it has 99% blueing, 98% stock finish with flawless fit of Pachmayr ventilated pad, rosewood grip cap, QD swivel studs-- mint bore and chamber throat. I doubt if it has been used very much.
I have "range tested it" with 165 grain Federal factory loads-- very close to MOA at 100 and 150 yards- from a padded bench rest position. Trigger breaks at 3.25 lbs. on a Lyman digital scale--
