Here's the new one that followed me home...pre64 action, brand new 602 barrel (22"), NEGC sights. Weights about 8.3lb ready to walk out the door. All put together by Leeper
It's the bottom one...I'm calling them "The Brothers Grimm"

I wondered how they had been built so light....

He's makin' sure he's compliant with the socialist, gun grabbin, nanny state a-holes.
What...........it's illegal to photograph rifles with bolts in them?

Wow, I put up pics of a new 375 in a 375 H&H thread and get flack b/c I don't have bolts in the gun....Wow....I don't remove them to comply with anything, I do it so they don't damage each other in the safe...I'm sure I'm not the only one. The antis don't have to do anything except sit back and wait when the legal, gun owners attack each other for something so trivial......stupid me, I thought you guys might like seeing them......

Your guns so you show them, photograph them and handle them as you see fit. That's how I deal with mine and those that don't like it, don't look.
If it weren't for builds the strain would be too much.

Good point and until you mentioned it, it had never really crossed my mind as a solution.
It's probably something I should consider, rather than 'gently' cramming them in as there is another row behind those in front, in both safes. Or,
another safe, just to handle the overload

I think they look just fine and I can relate to your logic, gosh knows I have a few stocks with bolt dings from the neighboring rifle.
Thanks for sharing the nice picture, its always good to see another rifle that Bill Leeper has massaged...
I think this was a joke. Keep calm and carry on folks.

Hey BongoBob,
Did you shoot that thing yet? Mine seems to be coming in at 1 1/4" right out of the gate, with 270 grain A-Frames and IMR4350. I've got half of the blueing shot out of the barrel already.
The .375 pilot for my case trimmer should show up today, then I'll put some loads together and go take her out for a spin...I might need some snowshoes to get out to the target boards though...it's been dumping snow here all week! I'll keep you posted...
