Stocks exhibit expected nicks and dings with some wear, no major damage or abuse, never cleaned or sanded, butt stock starting to get dry-crack stress lines, fore arm has slight chip missing right front at top. Mag tube is tight with no wobble. Bore is very good, a 8.0 of 10, with some wear and very light scattered black powder fouling but no rings or bulges, somewhat bright and might clean better, should spin a bullet fine. Overall grades NRA Antique Good and is a poplular, desirable variation to add to your Winchester collection.
