..all most
A pre-64 winnie butched with a Lilja 27" barrel, jewel trigger, super grade action, california english walnut, G9 mounts, conquest optics, 270 Weatherby.Danish crafted

Nicely done!

Very nice Almost a .270 winchester!

Don't you think the wood is a bit goudy? You didn't have a nice plank of birch laying around?

Very nice, EAW mounts?

Is the scope a 3-12x56 Zeiss Conquest?

The rifle looks very nice. The scope is altogether too much and spoils the overall proportions. Your eye may see it differently of course.

Beautiful stock!

Nice, but are the screws timed or did you take the easy route and go hex.

Nice rifle, and I also like the danish english walnut stock...

Like what I can see...how about a full profile?

It is better than a .270 winchester. Very nice furniture on that.

Jens' pictures lightened up a bit.

Don't mean to step on your toes, but it looks to me like Claro. All that fiddleback and dark wood? Nice one though.

I'd have to agree with this.....and yes.....a very nice gun in total.

Nice stain color on that table top too

Well..your not stepping on toes..atleast not mine , I was told by the gunmakers who the the rifle for me it was Cal-nut. If it is claro..I accept its claro then. Don`t know much about the the different kinds of walnuts

Nice rifle!

What can you tell me about the Scope mounts and scope?

And what bolt did you use? I really like the shape of the bolt?

The scopmount is Recknagels G9, The scope is Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x50, The bolt should be the original bolt of a pre-64 from `47.

Thank you all for fine compliments . I must admit I have been heavily inspirered of some of the fine american made custom sporters seen on this forum
I wanted a classic american style sporter and with Roy Weatherbys first commerciel cartridge, a great combination, of rifleaction, barrel,caliber,trigger, scope(american assembled), wood would do the trick. With a later perspective , talley rings would made have been the right choice...However Recknagels scopemounts are really some of the finest too.

great piece of wood..nice bluing.. i love it...

Talleys suck compared to the Recknagel and EAW mounts. The only upside is that Talleys are quite a bit cheaper.

You selected nice parts!

Very nice indeed ; Might I suggest a light colored table cloth when snapping a photo

of firearms in the future . It really helps accentuate what your looking at without over exposure .

Quality firearms deserve quality praise . VERY NICE WORK !.

Can you tell us more about the stock?
