RE: 2017 antelope - Don McDowell - 10-04-2017
I almost shot this one in self defense, the little buggers were coming right straight at me. I was putting salt out for the cows and the solar well, and out of nowhere here they came, was really surprised they let me walk back to the pickup and get my rifle out, then work around to a point that I wasn't shooting at, or thru the cows..
Someday I would really like to find one of these steel framed 81's in 7mm-08 at a reasonable price.

Don, what year/ serial # range were the steel frames made?
We got a fair-sized gun-show coming up. Give me $ range and condition you'd like to own, LOL.

Not sure about the serial # range, but they were made in the 80's and maybe into the 90's. They have a solid hammer, and an unfluted bolt. Also only came in straight grips.
