As they say, you done good and that bolt is classic, even contoured to the shape of the wood. You must be living right but don't tells any wives, we will never stop hearing, "Why did you pay so much, he got one for $200????

Sent it back.

It was very loose, and I've got too much going on to deal with buying and fitting a roll joint, or tigging up the hook. It was otherwise nice. It should arrive back to the GB seller tomorrow, and I'd expect it to be put back up for someone who's interested in fixing it. If someone here is game, I can locate the GB seller ID for you to keep an eye out.

For the VHE, I'm going to repair the stock as best as I can, but also look for a #1 stock to possibly acquire. The barrels have been reblued, and they came out very nicely. The action had gone very brown and rusty, but an ultrasonic bath and Frontier Pad has cleaned it up very well. Not sure it will be ready for the Southern, but it's coming along very nicely by my humble standards.
