Several years ago I picked up a barreled action here on AR, and sent it with a blank I had to Mike Cuypers at Bijou Creek to have a 300 H&H made. I wanted it to look like an old British magazine rifle, with long barrel, short narrow forend, barrel bands, etc. I was so pleased with the finished rifle that I started picking up other barreled actions, actions, or incomplete projects, and sending them down. The resulting "set" is nearing completion, and will include 6 rifles similar in appearance, and chambered in 7mm Mauser, the 300 H&H, 338 Win Mag, 404 Jeffery, 458 Win Mag, and 505 Gibbs.

Here's the 300 H&H on a VZ-24 that started it all:




Here's the 7mm Mauser, also on a VZ-24





And the 505 Gibbs:





I'll post the whole set with better pix when they're all complete.

That right hand Palm swell kills the blaser deal.

Biebs with your blaser Lovr these fine guns suit you as much as brioni suite on governor Christi Wink

I want to compare blaser to Mauser to s404 - something to do at dsc

Nice set. I always like the way the smaller calibers look and handle in an express rifle style!


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

That is a really great looking group of rifles.

Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.

Rich, the 505 is on an MRC 1999 PH I bought here for $600. The 458 was a pre-64 Supergrade with a broken stock. The 404 is a converted M70 Classic action in 300 RUM. The rest are all Mausers.
