Schultz &Larsen ~ 54J ~ .458 Winchester Magnum

Here is a beautiful rifle! It is a Schultz & Larsen M54J that has been custom gunsmithed into a very fine dangerous game rifle and is chambered in 458 Win Mag. The rifle has had a lot of work done to it to make it the fine rifle you see today. Lou Alessandri and Son in Rehobath Mass did the custom work. It has been restocked in beautiful walnut. Rebarreled and chambered in 458 Win Mag. The action has had an extra recoil point added to the rear of the receiver. A rib with 4 leaf (1 standing, 3 folding) express sight was added. The rib also has integral claw scope bases and a fitted set of rings is included. The stock has a nice silver shield inlay with no markings on it yet. The bolt knob has been checkered. A 4th recoil point has been added in the form of a barrel band to which the front sling swivel attaches. The trigger is excellent. This rifle has some handling and use marks and a bunch of small marks on the cheek rest, probably from firing while wearing ear muff hearing protectors. There is a stress crack in the wood just behind the tang, about 3/4" long. It is tight and has been there for a long time without apparent expansion. The rifle is loaded by inserting a round into the chamber from the top and closing the bolt, dropping the floorplate with the bolt closed, inserting two rounds in the magazine, and closing the floorplate. This allows for 3 rounds in the rifle. Overall a fantastic, powerful rifle that can handle anything you throw at it. Just add the scope of your choice and set off to regions unknown!
