After a 2-1/2 year gestation period, my new baby has arrived. This rifle is a 257 Roberts built on a Dakota single-shot action. Don Klein did all the work and it is superb. I need to look to into booking an antelope hunt.

WOW! Hey Forrest, you're only about an hour and a half away from me, I'd be glad to babysit anytime. I'll even pay you! Seriously, that is a work of art. Congratulations and thanks for sharing the picture. - John

Hey Stick- The best thing about it is the stock is not really wood. Its a plastic stock with a fancy paint job. It's so strong I can hang it over a rafter and do pull-ups with both kids and my mother-in-law hanging from my legs.

ForrestB......I'm suprised no one else has commented on the scope...nice to see a sharp looking rig with a scope that doesn't have the "circle of gold".

Forrest that is an incredible piece of art. I know you are VERY proud of it. Congratulations! I shall drink a toast to you & ????. You haven't named her yet! I have to have her name before I can toast her! Please name her & let us know the name here please.
