Very nice indeed!

Duane, If you you choose 1024 X 768 for 17 inch monitor your picture size your photos will be much larger and easier to see.

Top job Duane.
I’ve never done flat top before, time to have a crack. What LPI?

Stunning!
It would be difficult to hunt with. I would be caught mesmerized by that stock, there's a good chance I'd miss the game walking by.

sURPRISE TO ME TOO...MY DAUGHTER POSTED THESE IN MY ABSENCE, SHE THOUGHT THAT WAS THE SIZE THEY NEEDED TO BE..ANYWAY, CLICK ON THE IMAGE AND IT MAGICALLY GETS BIGGER

So,,the barrrel is Kreiger, wood from Vardy. Roger Kehr did the embellishment. That's 16 LPI on the checkering. Bolt release is just welded up and finely checkered..other than that the tang was modofied to pre war configuraion

Nice Mr. W, doesn't look like you had alkanet in your Daly's SF, or maybe just a tad?

This is a very hard piece of wood, I don't think the alkenet did much

I've had a number of quarter bores, the one caliber I have never owned was the .257 Roberts. If I ever built one it would be just like that! A classic, well done.

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
