Thanks barrel-nut.

I was very surprised when I looked at the images myself. I would have been happy to find this model with ordinary straight-grained walnut. Even buying Model 70 Winchesters, you gotta go with a Super Grade to get grain like that. I'm usually the very last guy to be in *just the right place at just the right time,* but I think I pulled it off this time.

Thanks for the info, too!
