Bore is supposed to be very good.That’s my only hesitation as I can t see the bore for myself until they ship it to me.From the outside it looks well cared for as far as that goes

Re: Debating on picking his little beauty up
That doesnt appear to be a mass produced Hawken which likely makes it a semi custom or custom rifle. IMO, You wont find another one that nice at that price provided it is accurate.
