Here's something you don't see every day

Customer wanted a 375 H&H with a full-length stock and a scout scope. I'd done plenty of full-length stocks, and plenty of scout scope set-ups, but never both in the same rifle. I have to say that the two went together like peanut butter and jelly. It balanced so nice and felt so good that I didn't want to let it go. The scout scope can be removed and the rifle used with the irons on the quarter rib, or used with a traditionally mounted scope. I want one.

Left handed 375 full stock - that is a great idea Wayne.

I like it. Can you do it in a .416? I've always said anything a .375 can do and .416 can do better.

Beautiful rifle.

Very nice, and different!
What's the barrel length?

We've done it in just about everything up to 600 Overkill, so 416 is a snap. Barrel length is 20".

Left hand? Didn't your elementary teachers beat that out of you?

Oh, I suppose I could.

Wayne, that is absolutely stunning!

P.S. The QD red dot base you made for my .505 works perfectly. Thanks

You're right; I don't think I've ever personally seen that combo. It looks fantastic and I'm sure shoots and handles well.

I'll also throw my hat in the "make one in left hand" ring...

Beautiful rifle!
One like that with a little brother in .308 would be just about the perfect combo for hunting the World over.

The workmanship is beautiful.

But I've never understood the appeal of Mannlicher stocks or Scout Rifles.

Not a fan of full-length stocks, but I must say that is a beauty. Job well done!
