I have inherited a rifle that has this on the Barrel ( 243 win. 4450 Made in Belguim FN (circle withF overN) The scope is a 20" unertl varmint. I am trying to find more onfo on this rifle. I called FN they said FN made a safari rifle in the mid 50s but they have no records on that time. The barrel is a heavy bull type and is 27 1/4 " from the chamber to tip. I havn'y been able to find anything like this on the web. Anyone have info on this rifle, worth year made etc. Thanks
