The 23-inch blued steel sporter-contour barrel is configured with factory-style open-sight provisions. The overall blued finish complements the sporter profile for a classic field look.
The receiver is cut with approximately 11 mm dovetail grooves, and clamp-on tip-off scope bases are already installed. This factory-style groove system gives a solid interface for the included bases.
