custom hunting rifle pic thread

[monasheemountainman]

Hey all- getting a custom built...I love rifles, especially nice customs. My latest one is of the standard rem 700 platform in 300 wsm, HS precision stock, Shillen #3 fluted barrel, trigger tech trigger, and going to top it off with a new vx5 I think...probably do a bit of cosmetic work with the bolt body and handle...nothing too crazy! I am thinking maybe a burnt bronze guncote to finish it off but not quite sure yet, so I was hoping guys would post up some pics of their custom jobs. mostly interested in bolt action hunting rifle pics but what the hell post whatever you got!! Ill post my new one when its done, but for now here was my last one done by Gary Flach out of Langley.

Very nice, I like that a lot! What does it weigh and is that a 24" barrel?

I can't take credit for putting this together as I bought it thus way, Mauser action 25-06 not really "custom" but cool just the same.

I like that. The older custom mausers get passed over too quickly by most people. Cartridge looks suitable for the place that picture was taken too.

Nice TB! It's actually your 280 ai ^ that made me consider doing a burnt bronze cerakote, I wasn't sure I liked the look until I saw that rig on HBC thread!!

 

[SuperCub]

I agree!
