Barrel Contour for 9.3x62
I'm building a 9.3x62 on a new Model 70 Classic action and I've pretty much settled on a 26" length but I'm unsure of which contour to get. It'll be a chrome moly Pac-Nor and I would like to install express sights as well, with possibly a fold down peep on QR scope mounts. I've seen this pictured on this sight but have no idea who produces them.
The stock is another consideration, I'm leaning towards a Mcmillan fiberglass, but want to see wood options as well. Something classic and very functional, this is a hunting rifle.

Any suggestions or links would be appreciated

Check with Woody at Lothar-Walther. They do several of the old Holland and Holland, Rigby, and Mauser Model B contours that were made for quarter ribs and classic stocks.

You might stir the skeletons of long dead gunmakers with a milk carton stock, though. [Smile] )

Check out the pics ALF posted on this thread -- he indicated that this rifle has the Lothar Walther barrel with the .770 muzzle diameter. Very classic, beautiful.

And here's Lothar Walther's web site as Jack mentioned:
