Oooohhhh, that's pretty. Nice work.

But it's a lefty!

Very nice work. If it was right handed I could find a spot for it in my gun cabinet .

Jim

Very nice work. That had to take many hours of work.
How much does something like this cost? Send me a PM or email if you don't want to publish the info.

I'll guess in the $5K range, But I don't have clue.

Nice work! I'm a lefty too.

So as not to let on per the owner, the price is between $3k and $4k.

I can make one in a RH version if you want.

Jim, this is just the kind of thing that pisses me off! After going out and throwing rocks at my own personal elk rifle, my shoulder will be sore for a week. Fotunately I don't throw any more accurately than I shoot and the rifle was unhurt. Regards, Bill.

Jim, that looks damn nice. Excellent work.

Nice! The configuration in front of the floorplate looks stunning. How does it feel?? Are the "edges" a problem "feelwise"??

The detail in front of the floorplate is simply a different type of transition from the "slab" sides to the round forend. It feels great and does not interfere with the fit.

Thanks for the accolades.

Jim

Boy Jim, that sure is a nice floorplate

Nice work. Glad to have you as a customer.
How long did it take to do the inletting?? I ran out of patience on doing that some time ago, and went to CNC.

Jim
Nice work on the rifle. It looks great and the checkering is aesthetically and technically impeccable.

It does,in my estimation, seem to be missing some scratching on her bottom metal. LOL!
