I have a M71 Deluxe made in 1939- I used it once on MI whitetail- about 20 years ago. I refuse to get it scoped, Winchester LA rifles were never designed to wear scopes-- Looks like the .375H&H is still "open" to me, if I decide to pony up the $2500. If it didn't have that $#(*&&^^ muzzle break threaded on, I might- but I am holding firm at my $1900 offer-- so, we shall see- guess I'll have to whack a few hogs with the 300 grainers I have for my .348Win- a real stopper- blew the lungs completely out of the 6 point I took with it, years ago.
