This rifle is built on a Remington M1903A3 receiver from the WWII era and configured as a streamlined hunting sporter. The bolt has been turned down, and the action includes a manual safety with an internal 5+1 capacity. The receiver is blued steel and drilled and tapped for optics.
The chambering is .25-06 Remington, paired with a 26-inch steel sporter barrel that features a recessed crown. Iron sights have been removed to maintain a clean sightline and reduce weight at the muzzle.
Optics are already in place with a Bushnell Scopechief IV 2.5-8x variable-power scope mounted in installed base and rings. The Command Post reticle provides a distinct aiming reference, and Bushnell tethered lens caps are included.
The custom high-gloss hardwood stock has a Monte Carlo comb and rollover cheekpiece for a solid cheek weld, along with contrasting forend tip and grip cap separated by white/black line spacers. A ventilated recoil pad and sling swivel studs round out the field-ready setup. Length of pull measures 12.5 inches.
Additional notes: Observed serial falls above typical Remington M1903A3 ranges (number not disclosed).
