Rating Definition:

Very fine as refurbished and upgraded by High-Tech Custom. With 99% of the matte blue finish remaining, some light scattered handling marks, and light cycling marks on the bolt body. The stock is also very fine with highly attractive figure, sharp checkering, and just a few small insignificant dings. Mechanically excellent. Case is excellent with some light storage marks on the exterior.
