Very nice, the caliber is right, the inlay is clean, the checkering is too fine and will be a wash BUT I wouldnt complain [Big Grin]
like that elephant

let me edit here... I didnt read carefully 24 lpi it looked finer but thats still fairly fine.

Very nice! Someday Id like to hold one of these rifles do you go to any shows in the area?
Did you ever get my email about a rifle? Im thinking about one in the future. Not quite that fancy. I also would like to ask you a question or 2 about reloading but didnt know if my email is working.
Ps the tape made it on to the next?

Smallfry - No, I am sorry. I understood exactly what you meant but rushed my response. Yes, I think I would have asked for a more aggressive LPI on a .500, myself. Some fellows don't shoot them, so it may be all for aesthetics.

Dean - ?? No email, unless inadvertently deleted. I'm getting so much trash mail of late, I screw up sometimes. Video not there yet, as per Scott Terry. It'll come soon. Try Email again tonight, if possible. [Smile]

Hi Nick,
They have done an excellent job on that 500. It's full of quality features and still a very practical rifle. They sure did a nice on all the engraving and gold inlay. It's just the right amount to accent and draw your eye to the features. What I'm saying is that it is very tasteful yet subtle. Did they put in the hidden crossbolts on that rifle.
Take care,
Dave

Yes Dave, that's how they prefer to do the crossbolts but they will do them in the fashion we are used to seeing, if requested. I ran that by them when you mentioned this a while back. [Smile]
