StonecreekThis is a truly beautiful rifle. Too bad that the comb is so low and drop of the buttstock so great that it is so poorly suited to the use of the scope. With this stock configuration I feel it should have been left with irons only. It also bothers me a bit that a rifle that is obviously not in the field and not about to be fired should be photographed with the striker cocked. The stiker should always be down on an unloaded chamber when a gun is in repose.

Orion 1Stonecreek, I agree with the stock dimensions issue. This being a bespoke rifle, they will stock it to suit you. I would order mine with a straight comb ready for a scope.
Leo, that's very competitive with most of the custom American builders. In fact, a comparable Echols may cost more.

<257 AI>That is a beautiful rifle! But, I would be afraid to use it because if I scratched it I would cry.

OldFartI love to see beautiful lumber on a rifle or pistol. I would diffently take it, but not for 15 grand.

<Matt77>nice rifle?
na, we have at least 70 similiar rifles, if not better in one closet in my house.
Geez, that rifle is pure plebian.
HAHAHA, wouldn't it be sweet to own something with that level of class. Just looking and holding something that pretty would give the average man the chills.
