I remember that very rifle from a long-ago article in Shooting Times by the late Graham Burnside, an early and prolific arms author. In fact, that article started my search for a 68/68, which was not fulfilled until MANY years later when I acquired #62.

In fact, I once held it myself when I visited him in the early '90s. Very nice piece!
