In the late 70s I purchased a bunch of bastogne walnut blanks. At that time I was building custom rifles as a hobby. I retired recently and decided to resume my hobby, only this time I thought I'd focus on building a few long range rifles. So here's my first "shot" at it:

Stevens long action converted to single shot with SSS follower epoxied in place
Shilen select match 28" bull barrel 260AI long throat (Mystic Precision)
SSS machined stainless lug
SSS stainless nut
SSS tactical blue handle
SSS competition trigger
SSS lift kit
Kick eez pad
Bastogne walnut blank
Custom build cheek piece ajustable horizontally and vertically
Bipod rail
Pillar and Devcon bedded
Epoxy and tru-oil finish

I'll be installing a Near base 30 MOA, a Near Alphamount and a Sightron III 8-32x56mm LRMOA.

Long distance results to follow.

Outstanding!!

You are truly a man who knows his stuff.

I would be first in line if you ever decided to offer up your services!!
 
Looks good. I'm just waiting for someone to complain about using that wood with a Savage product.
 
:eek:Holy crap, nice job Moosetracker! You were right, that wood is awsome. :)

I was not aware that you took the retirement plunge, congratulations! If you ever get bored, you know were to find a short action Steven's. :p
