Over the course of time, I've bought actions, barreled actions, stock blanks, and other various components here on AR.I would send these down to Bijou Creek Customs to add to a 300 H&H that they had already competed for me. The rifles are now coming to completion. Here are the 338, 300 H&H, and 7mm Mauser. The rest are being completed and checkered. The set will be:
505 Gibbs
458 Win Mag
404 Jeffery
338 Win Mag
300 H&H
7mm Mauser

one of us Very NICE
Love the wood on the 300H&H
One of Us The best blanks went on the 300 H&H, the 458 Win Mag, and the 404, as I recall. The 505 blank was obviously selected for strength.

One of Us Bobby, a long time in the making. I think from now on I'll just find stuff already done that I like.

One of Us To quote Wayne at AHR - I don't even know if he took delivery - he probably sold it before it got to him.

One of Us Could you please list the particular actions and barrels (top to bottom) that you used on these rifles.
One of Us They're mostly VZ-24 actions. The 458 will be on an original pre-64 Model 70 Supergrade action, and the 505 on an MRC 1999 PH.

One of Us Skipped right over the 375h&h.... Ballsy
One of Us I'm picky about my bolt handles. I notice all three of these are different. Was that the plan?

One of Us No, they were supposed to all be straight-down Oberndorf-style, and NECG Masterpiece sights.

Yes Jon that would most likely save you some cashola. Nice customs are not cheap. Fun to put a set together though.
