So s this a non-drop floorplate- and you unload by cycling out the rounds- I have a M54 SuperGrade in .220 Swift my late father bought- sent to Winchester custom shop in 1940- rebuilt to the M70 bolt-safety-bolt release and trigger, a similar forged steel floorplate and trigger guard bow replaced the older sheet metal one -had a Stith scope when Dad gave it to me in 1980- 26" stainless barrel. Having a hinged drop floorplate is not really necessary on this varmint caliber- I only load one rd. at a time, so it could be a "BA single shot" I guess. But if I didn't have Dad's old "varmit vaporizer" I'd sure love to own this one you have shown us-that is one fine looking rifle indeed- form and function, and nothing on the rifle that doesn't belong there-RWTF
