I was looking for some information to clarify some question about a rifle I had as a youth. It was a CIL Anschutz model 180 with a beech stock and rifle sights. It was sold during my teens and I bought another 180 years later at an auction. The second one had a cut out (notch) of the barrel about 6 inches ahead of the receiver and was drilled and tapped on the left side of the receiver - all seemingly factory done. Unfortunately I don't have either anymore. The last one went way up north to a great guy and minister we all know. Was there a different variant of the model 180 or changes between the model years? I'd love to find one like I originally had without the barrel notch. I used to be able to shoot 22 casings off fence posts at 20 yards - those were the days. Any help or information to clarify my questions would be appreciated. Thanks, Peter.

The original 180's came with upen sights.
he cutout groove is for the elevator.
The also were drilled and tapped for redfield Olympics, and a later knock off sight.
Fine rifles, the same action and barrel were used for the 190, an upgraded sporting class rifle with a rail that could be used as an entry level match rifle with a sling.
