Bought the receiver from Darwin Hensley a while back. It is a small ring Peruvian. It has a LaPour safety, Blackburn trigger, Wiebe bottom metal, damascus scope bases, and a Shilen barrel. Jim Kobe did an excellent job on the Roger Vardy walnut.

That's a class act! I especially like to see a good Dale Goens checkering pattern executed well.
Regards, Joe

It is hard to see the Damascus pattern. It looks more like gold inlay up close.

I love that cart/action combo. I wonder how light you can make that rig.

It ain't light. It is 7lbs3oz without scope and rings. With the scope that I am putting on it, it will be 8lbs.

Nice rifle in a classic chambering! I like it!


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.

Beautiful rifle Butch. I really like how the mounts turned out.

I've got one of those actions and a Douglas barrel short chambered in 250. Now all I need is a wheelbarrow full of cash, because I sure don't have the talent those gentlemen have.

I have one question, why a pad vice a steel buttplate? I can see a more practical aspect to it and the thin pad looks very good.

I just wanted a red pad. The one just before this had a metal buttplate with the trap door.
