The sales receipt from my purchase in 2000 is also shown as provenance. The rifle was brand new in the box when I purchased it from Mike's Custom Shop in Hamilton, Montana. I have only shot 1 box of shells through the rifle since I have owned it. It has been kept inside a stainless steel Pelican Case inside my gun safe for 24 years. It has come out of my gun safe usually at Thanksgiving and Christmas to show to friends and family. The rifle is now 52 years old and is MINT Condition. The Scope comes with the rifle. It was boresighted and professionally installed by McBride's in Austin, Texas when the rifle came in. It is a Burris Black Diamond 3x-12x. One box of shells was used to sight the rifle scope in.
