We just finished a major upgrade to our website. If you have a chance take a look and let us know what you think.

The site is as beautiful as your rifles are.

Fantastic!

Karl, very nice web site. Could you give some particulars about the rifle shown on your home page?

I must say this is one of the best site ive seen!
Congrats!

Btw just sent you an email regarding (hopefully) my action!

Great site and congratulations. Would love to know more about your Mauser project.

Best,

Bill

Looks great!

Very nice, especially the single shot.

What are the major differences between that Webley and Scott action and say a Ruger Number 1 action.

The rifle on our home page was built as a donation to the NRA and sold in auction last year in Houston. We built it in the style of an African Express Rifle, but in reality it is a 250-3000. Many folks asked us why build a 250-3000 in that style, and our only answer is 'because we can'. The rifle holds 6 rounds in the magazine with the drop box. The picture on the rifle page of the stock getting built was that rifle. It has a Leupold VXII 2.5 x 8, with custom balistically matched reticle. The chechering was done by Gary Goudy, but all the rest was done here.

Karl,
Great web site. I love the look of the skeleton butt plate checkering. Did Gary do that? It looks like some of his incredible work.

Yes Chic, you are correct. Gary did that for us. With having a resource like that so close to us, it is difficult to imagine going any other way.

Chic,
By the way, when are you going to find time to come pay us a visit?

Karl your site is awesome! Excellent ( Eye candy ) photos. Love the photos of the stock work.

If only I could afford one of those single shots, big sigh.

Karl,
I need to find some time to visit you and your shop. I have a consulting engineering firm now and hardly have anytime to myself. Having a lot of fun at the same time.

Karl, I love the new website! A lot more information than the old one. I want one of those actions even more now!

Terry

Karl,

Will you have any of you rifles displayed at the SCI Convention (Reno or Dallas)?

Karl is in Idaho deer hunting this week. We did not get in to the SCI convention this year, but we may still be trying to get in the Dallas SCI show.

We will be at the RMEF convention in Reno,the FNAWS convention also in Reno and the NRA show in Milwaukie.

We hope to post are schedule on the website.

To the lads at WFH,
can you tell me, is that 250/3000 built on your N1 or N2 reciever?
If it is on your N1, have you modified the box over and above the std 2.5"? Because the 2.5" box seems alittle short to me(but I am no 250Sav. expert). the reason I say this is that if the 260R loads at 2.8" on a 2.0" case,the 250Sav case being 1.9" I thought one would need more than a 2.5 box especially if loading a 115tsx or 120gn pill.
If we can modify an original P64 to accept the 300H&H @ 3.60" what is the longest loaded length we can modify your N1 reciever to accept?
Nice work Lads
I am considering one of your recievers with integral scope ring base blocks to accept conetrol rings.

Woodjack,

The number one could be opened up a little more but not much.I think about .100". It is not so much an issue of weakening the action as it is having a long enough feed ramp to feed smoothly.

If you wanted to long seat bullets I would go to a #2 size reciever.

I am not in the shop at the moment so I cannot measure anything to be certain.

so how many sizes are you making in the webley action?

We are offering four sizes at this time. Roughly anything from .22 Hornet to .700 Nitro.
