Well, I think the headspace needs to be reset. I have trouble with factory ammo. So either way, I am going to have to spend money. And the scope as cool as it is still is almost 60 years old. Clear, but alot of glare, and the german type recticle is not good for hunting. If it didn' t have the nifty scope with it, I would have already sporterized it. But is the markings on the action, and the nifty scope enough to think about making it a cool collectors type gun.
