Rating Definition:

Very fine. The rifle retains 70% original thin blue finish with areas fading to a smooth brown and gray patina, and showing some high edge wear. The buttplate shows 40% original muted case colors with a smooth gray patina on the balance. The wood is also very fine with 90% original varnish remaining and showing some minor dents and scratches, concentrated mainly on the stock. The markings are clear. The action is excellent.
