Finsihed project, 400 Tembo

Just completed this one. It was done on a MRC action modified by Evolution USA in Idaho. It is one of their proprietary calibers, 400 Tembo, a shortened 404 Jeffery I believe. The wood was a select blank from Dressel's. It has been rust blued and was built from the blank. The engraved grip cap and checkered bolt knob was done by Jerome Glimm and welded on by me.

Enjoy, Jim

The fitting of the fore end tip is a superb touch.

Jim I very interested in this as well, its a caliber I have been thinking about for over a year now. Did you have to provide a rifle? I have a beautiful CZ in 375 H&H. Regards

The client furnished the barreled action; it was done up by Evolution USA. I did the sights.
