New V-C .470 NE
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.

Wanna make $100.00 right now? Wink Big Grin

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 ....

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

Good hunting.

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.
