It was found in a Pawn Shop in Heber Springs, AR. I think I had $300 in it. No rust but no finish either. I shot a few .30 Carbine out of it and it shot great but what blast! I had some reservations about rifle primers in the factory and military ammo.
I was all hopped up for a unusual custom and had the bug. Gary got me set up with a full custom package. I got a heavy barrel in a rifle twist. He did some very special engraving for me. The cylinder was about half the cost of a new .327 gun so no new holsters or stuff to go find. It is drilled and tapped for the Leupold base too. Not original but something special for sure.
I have taken two sheep with it in .300 GNR.

Just curious, what type and diameter bullets are you using? (nm)
