	Well, I really did not mean I wouldn't want a set trigger heavy barrel Ballard 22 LR with an excellent bore at a fantastic price. Has some issues with removing the block, but once in place it functions well. The buttstock could use some repair or I might replace it. It is a cast action with mismatched serial numbers, but I wasn't looking for a collector-quality rifle. The only marking on the barrel is done with an electric engraver under the forend with the initials R W S and a date of 72 along with some numbers that look like a social security number. Now to see how it shoots.

	Ah, I saw it was a .22 by hovering over the image.

	Ah yes, the caliber. I added 22LR to the post. This was absolutely the only caliber, bore condition, set trigger Ballard that I would have bought. Plus it came with a nice Weaver K4-W scope.

	It took some enlarging of the holes in a couple of scope blocks to accommodate them to the existing barrel holes, but this looks better than the K4-W Weaver that came with it. Jack

	That looks much better with a great target scope Jack! I might have a semi inletted buttstock blank if you wanted a woodworking project?

	Schwartzstock, I will be stalking the elusive 250 target. In between, it will double as a barbell. Jack

	How about an offhand stock? Need to do some weight lifting first. Jack
