The rifle only has Model 700 stamped on it. It has a 24" barrel. I have no clue how to determine twist rate. The scope is Bushnell, no model information on the scope. It is 4-12, and sits on Burris mounts. Back to the rifle, there is scrollwork at the receiver end. My buddy once told me he took out a bird in a tree with it at 150 yards (yes, he could shoot that well, so I believe it). The stock has a couple of scuff marks, but it is a painted synthetic unit, so that shouldn't mean much, I wouldn't think. Anyway, I will do another post with some pics, as soon as I remember how to do that. Shouldn't take too long, though.
