Thanks Blaze...found that gun in my first week of detecting...might have passed it up now, because at the time I hadn't learned how to determine iron from other metals and just dug up whatever made the most noise! proved to be a valuable find as I kept going back to that area and having success.

Can you tell if your rifle has an octogon barrel or not? Just curious!
