I have come to the realization I simply have too little time and too many rifles/calibers so I am downsizing!
About three years ago I purchased this beautiful, light-weight 7mm Mauser Ruger #1A rifle. The gentlemen I bought it from explained the rifle had been completely factory refurbished to include re-bluing, new wood, and a new barrel. While I do not have any documentation to prove this, I have no reason to doubt it as the rifle is in excellent condition with pretty wood. After purchase I took it to the range a few times and ultimately put exactly 50 rounds through it into nice tight groups at 100 yards. I then put it in the safe where it has been sleeping ever since in its Ruger branded gun sock.
The rifle wears an early but functionally sound Leupold Vari-XIII 1.5-5x scope with duplex reticle, rearward set in Leupold extension rings to allow proper eye relief at all magnification levels. Butler Creek flip-up lens covers protect the scope's glass. The scope does have a couple of small nicks on the focus locking ring which I've tried to capture in the pictures.
In addition to the rifle/scope above, I will also include the following 7x57mm Mauser handloading items:
