My father gave me this rifle (forgot to tell me for a few years, but that's a different story) and it was originally owned by his father. It is a Parker Hale "Safari", .308 win, non-detachable magazine. I'm looking for information on it: Model, possible year, quality and accuracy of these rifles, price range (not selling, just curious). I've read somewhere that these use the same (or similar) bolt as the k98; it does look similar, is this true?

Stock is a bit worn
Nice Monte carlo style stock:
Interesting sights, the rear folds down to fit a scope:
Parker Hale LTD Birmingham England
Safari Time!
19 tons per... box? 2.015"?
Bolt seems really sturdy, but needs lube.
Does this take some sort of stripper clips? Or have I just handled too many mil surps?
I have never shot it because I love mil surplus rifles.
My father almost never used this because he prefers detachable magazines.
Many moose have been killed by my grandfather with this.
I'm tempted to refinish it, but I'm worried about ruining a (literal) grandfathered rifle. My mosin turned out decent, but it didn't have checkering or that white trim. I would also want a better finish than my mosin
