Revelation Model 225, same as Savage Model 340, bolt action .30-30 rifle with box magazine, mid 1960s production, 4x Leupold scope, beautiful walnut stock with very light handling marks/barely used and with great blueing. There appears to be repair on a thin piece of walnut just behind the bolt but you really have to look to see it. I've tried to show it in pics. 20" barrel so great brush or KIDS rifle. I added the scope and mount but never fired it. Picked up in Greeneville, TN. $600.

I shot my first deer with a rifle like this. The guy dad bought it from loved it because he could hand load pointed bullets in 30-30 and got alot better ballistics. Good luck with the sale!

Very nice rifle! Beautiful stock and the bluing is awesome. They don't make them like that anymore unfortunately.
If I needed another rifle this would be mine. Good luck with sale, someone's going to get a gem.

Beautiful rifle. I have one, but it's not quite as nice as yours. I bought it on a whim to experiment with reloading. With the box mag, you can load spitzer bullets instead of the traditional flat nose. A little off book experimentation with 125gr Sierra pro-hunters yields 300 Savage performance from the old 30-30 cartridge in these guns.
