I have just been wondering what kind of awesome builds y'all have done on your rifles. I plan to do one soon and wanted to brainstorm, thought this was the best way, knowing some of y'all have made some pretty sick guns. Please post a pic of your gun and also include model, scope (brand&specs) and everything you have done to it. Looking forward to seeing your setups...

Thanks, as much as I love hunting with it, I do not as often as I would like to. Would hate to scratch up bastogne walnut stocks. even with my 50 year old eyes shooting 2 inch groups at 100 yards is easy to do with it.
that was a bucket list gun for me, that I never thought I would own. Then found this one used at a gun show, bought it and never regretted that decision

not much on the surface but this rifle has the barrel floated, action bedded, trigger job done and a sweet sling. It's my favorite gun in my collection
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Go bad after 30 years??? It was given to me in 1984 from my great uncle and we have no idea how long he had it before that. No telling how old it is but it is still bad enough to drop game in their tracks. Expecting scope to go out any day and that will be one sad sad day
