When my Dad passed away in 2006, I inherited his guns. One of the rifles is a Smith and Wesson Bolt Action Rifle, with a Schnabel foreend, chambered in 308 Winchester. There is NO model number listed on the rifle, but it does have "Sweden" and "Nitro" stamped on the barrel, so I assume it is a Husgvarna manufactured rifle. From my research, I had assumed it was a Model 1500, but it appears that the Model 1500 was not manufactured in .308, or with a Schnabel stock, but the Model 1700 LS included a removable magazine - which this rifle doesn't have.
Anybody have any information on this rifle or experience with these old S&W Bolt Guns? It's a beautiful rifle, and I would really like to know the Model Number, Date of Manufacture and value. Serial Number is 327150.
Thanks,
Ed
