Back when I was shooting on a National Guard smallbore rifle team, I decided to buy my own rifle. Found an old Mossberg target rifle. Cleaned up the bore, had a new front sight installed, added a web sling . . . I think I had about $30 in it. (That was in the mid-60's.) Very well made and very accurate. Was a great deal for a college kid. The Armory was located between my house and the college I was attending. Had a 50 foot indoor range. Whenever I had time, I'd stop by the armory, draw some ammo, and do a little shooting.
