Wow, what a techie! :-)

Nice rifle. Looks like you mixed in a couple of Mauser shots at the end.

I got to get all touchy feely with it the other day. You should see it in person!

The last one! it should go with the FN 7x57 on the other post,

Thanks

I saw it in person yesterday. It is a beauty, both metal and wood!

Very nice work. You don't see many custom Springfields these days, but that one is a beauty.

This metalwork was done by Jim Dubell; I think it may have been one of the last ones he worked on and he did a beautiful piece of work.

Looks good Jim!

Does the "Dubell" refer to the late Jim Dubell of Delta Gun Shop? If so, did he furnish the barrel, or rebore the original barrel?

I mess Jim. He was a pleasure to work with and did wonderful reboring.

Very nice work Jim! Don't you just love inletting those skeleton grip caps?

Doug

That's a beautiful rifle !

Every serious old school shooter should have a nice Springfield in his collection.

Especially one this well executed.

That is absolutely amazing!

That is just fantastic!

That does refer to Jim Dubell. I am not sure about the barrel but it appears to be a commercial one that he re-profiled at the chamber end.

That looks fantastic. I love the stock lines.

I have an 03 action and 30 cal barrel blank in the rack that hopefully will someday grow up to be a comparable rifle. After Petrov passed I re read both of his books and just have to have a classic 03. This build exemplifies the "American Classic"

Well done. . .

Yes it does!

Beautiful.

Nice rifle.
