Assistance needed decoding/verifying an A-Squared Hannibal .416 serial number

Howdy from Michigan! Gentlemen I am in need of your sage help and assistance.
I have an A-Squared Hannibal chambered in .416 Rigby (that I'm hoping to sell); it has a single square bridge Mauser action and a Leupold scope. Painstakingly, I have looked everywhere in an attempt to verify its manufacture date and model. By appearance I'm fairly certain its a Deluxe, however, its serial number: W137859, I have not been able to locate. My current and "best guess" suggest it to be possibly a 1979...

After almost 3 years, it's time

All of our mounts from RSA from May of 2023 are completed and crated. Wyatt from SSI is handling the import. It's been somewhat of a process, to no fault on Wyatt's end. We were a party of 4, 3 of our crates are with the shipper and 1 is on it's way. The idea is to move them all together, potentially saving on shipping.

Wyatt has done a fantastic job thus far despite the taxidermist and logistics company emailing each of us direct, vs. him, as we had asked them to.

Mauser 66

"Lighter Politics" Humour

The long-running Politics thread is for serious (or at least mostly serious) discussion of political affairs. The thread "On A Lighter Note" is more for non-political memes and funny stuff.

I'm proposing a new thread that combines the two. It can be for any politically oriented meme or headline regardless of party or political orientation.

Here is something to start it off with.

New hunting rifle

Planning an Antelope hunt in the next few years, and I got hot to get a rifle that would shoot a little further with more accuracy than my 270, and certainly my 338. I just ordered a Ruger American Gen II 7MM PRC. I'm topping it with a Vortex Viper HD 3-15X44, VMR3 MOA reticle. I read a lot of good things about both. Anyone care to tell me how poorly ar well I chose? I am looking forward to setting it up, and I am curious about suggestions for ammo that this platform will like? Thanks all.
