Rifle Build
Well it's been an interesting last 18 months and now my divorce is final and it's time to get back to work. Here is the start of what I hope to be a very nice 25-06. Getting the bolt done and polishing the action.








This is the start everything is polished to 220 finish final polishing after stocking.

Michael, sorry to hear about the divore, but I am glad it is finished up. I know you were in the middle of that last we spoke.

I really like the bolt root also, I may have to use that on a future build if you do not mind.

You know an octagon barrel would look really nice on that Smiler

Knowing you I am looking forward to seeing the stick of wood you have set aside for this build.

Keep the pictures coming!

Beautiful start. I agree on the bolt handle, it's unique and stunning to say the least.

I am impressed by the polishing job. Was that all accomplished with stones or did you use a surface grinder.

Also, nice job remodeling the bottom metal.

The rear bridge was surface ground and everything else was polished with polishing sticks ans stones.
