Dave,

Honestly, not as much as I'd like. Part of the issue is 60+ year old eyes and peep sights. Not as easy to use as they once were That said the rifle is a tack driver even with a headspace shim having been installed in the bolt assembly indicative of LOTS of usage.

I got it from a VFW Junior Rifle Team that was switching to Anschutz as the kids had been complaining that the old 513Ts were too heavy. The 27" barreled piece weighs 8 pounds 12 ounces with the sights but no sling. Mine has US Military markings and original parkerized finish which confirmed what the VFW coach told me... they had got them through the Civilian Marksmanship Program.
