    @LOC Sold it to a guy who had been looking for a 308 Forbes for over 12 months he was stoked to get it, didn't lose money in the end. Went out and bought a new forbes 260, I love my 6.5's.
    Did a bit of digging, because the serial.number on that 308 was so low (21) it means Melvin Forbes himself did that stock by hand.

    That is a bloody early number, how many are the up to now based on your new one?
