I bought this in an estate sale not long ago, and I have tried desperately to find a reason to keep it. I have a lifetime of experience with 30 calibers, and I'm too old to start over with a new caliber. The rifle has been fired, but barely. I would rate it at 98%. Built on the L61R action, the serial number puts manufacture in 1972. This is probably as fine a rifle as you could buy these days. Price is $1750 plus shipping to your FFL.

I forgot a few details. The scope is a Leupold 2.5-8. The mounts are the Sako Optilock system, and I bought new 30mm rings that still in the box, and included in the sale.
 
Rifle is SPF. Thanks everyone.

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
