GG375My cz 550 .416 project.
Hi all
Well, I thought since everyone else was showing off their latest projects, I might as well get in on the act as well

Mind you this one has been in the pipeline now for a good couple of years - now just waiting on final shaping and finishing of the stock and rust blueing after that.
Details are;
PME 3 pos safety
Bolt handle straightened
1/4 rib
Banded sling swivel and foresite
AHR trigger (not shown in this photo)
Everything squared up and trued and lugs lapped etc
Can't wait till she's finished - will post more photos then.
Hooroo

Stock looks good what kind of timber is it?
Who is making the banded sling swivel?

DavidCGG375,
Very very nice!!! All these projects are really getting me in the mood to start one of my own.
One question. Where did you get the stock pattern you are using?
Regards,
Dave

500grainsNice looking stock.
Where did the blank and pattern come from?

nextjoeGG,
That stock is gorgeous. It should be a beautiful rifle. Anticipation is either the best or worst part of a custom project; I'm not sure which!
Best,
Joe

diesel_dudeVery Nice wood. That will be a beautiful rifle when finished. I always like the anticipation of trying to figure out what it will look like when it is all finished! Happy shooting

TGetzenNice looking stock, great lines. Nice grain too. You can't beat a classically styled rifle like that.
