Condition report:
The rifle is in fair to good overall condition. The blued finish on the barrel and receiver shows minor thinning at the high edges and muzzle, with scattered light handling marks and faint surface scratches. The bore was not internally inspected, though the rifling appears intact at the muzzle. The bolt action cycles smoothly and appears to function correctly, though we have not function-tested this firearm. The smooth wood stock shows a significant gouge and scraping on the front left side of the forend, with additional scattered dings and light scratches throughout the finish consistent with field use. The black rubber recoil pad is intact with some minor surface wear and discoloration.
