I recently came across a 03 springfield sporter mfg. by Remington. The owner of the shop claims that it was originaly built by Springfield for 1000 yd competion and that it is quite rare.The rifle has a Lyman receiver site with a high band type front site.It is not drilled or tapped for any other site or scope mount.The stock has a cheek rest and quite a high comb.The forend is a bit heavy for a sporter and has a slight swell or snobble at the end.The wood apears to be walnut with a dark finish and it has a wood butt plate.The ser. no. is 3116986. I like the gun and the price seems fair ($300) but I want to know what I am buying. Can you Help me on this one? I live only 2 miles from the shop that has it so if you need more info just ask.
