Just received it from Ken yesterday. I haven't been able to shoot it yet, but hope to tomorrow. As you can see I had them build in a base for the Docter sight that is literally removable in 3 seconds. Pleased with the fit and everything else at this point. I have a 15 1/8" LOP, and it comes up nicely. Sorry the pix aren't great was having a lot of problem with lighting an flash blowing out...



























Good Hunting,

Love that round body action! Your rifle is almost long enough for me too.

This is the style of VC I like best and am considering a .300 flanged. Beautiful wood on your rifle; you can't go wrong with this one.
Congratulations,
Cal

Beautiful rifle. So "English" in its looks - splinter forend, straight grained wood, elegant scrols ....

Lovely rifle.Congratulations.

As much as they are unconventional, I like the idea of the Doctor sight.

Good hunting.

Cheers,

Looks great. I really like the combination of the splinter and the round body. Well done. If it shoots half as good as it looks, you will have a fine rifle there.
