I Just located TWO 99% Model 71s. One is as factory with all accessories - sights, hood, etc. Including a set of .348 dies and one hundred primed brass. $2400

The other is a custom Model 71 in .375 Alaskan - this is a 348 Ackley Improved expanded to take a .375 bullet. It has a heavier barrel and all surfaces are cleaned up and nicely rust blued. It is 100% - looks like it has never been carried and no handling marks at all. $2500

Hard to choose. The original condition gun has collector potential, the the custom gun is very cool and would be 'a hoot to shoot'.

Mybe I should get both?
