Congrats Larry. I tried to buy that rifle also before ordering mine but it didn't fit me. The cast was wrong and the LOP was too short. It's a fine weapon!!

Was it the one with the rounded action??? It felt really nice, but was a little short for me and the cast was a little off. I still almost bought it on Thursday. I gonna order to fit me.

Really, really cool rifle. Congrats!,,,

I must say that the VC round bodies were spectacular, very lively between the hands and very fetching.

Good question Will. I have nothing set as of yet for big game this year. Still working on it.

That particular rifle sold quite a few rifles for Ken.

I saw it and fell in love at Dallas so I ordered one in .470 fitted for me........now I just gotta wait till it gets here....
