A Ruger #1 with the feather crotch wood in the buttstock is eye candy to be sure.

My factory 1907 Winchester 1885 Schuetzen rifle in 38-55 with a 30" #4 barrel. Old model 70's are nice too.

I would say for a factory rifle a Weatherby Accumark. Or a Remington 700 with a fluted barrel and some sort of spider webbed synthetic stock. As you can tell I am from the younger generation. I have never been turned on much by glossy finishes on stocks or metal.

I like the looks of these two girls. Both in 30-06 and both older than me (32). I've killed 8 deer with the pump and 1 with the Enfield (circa 1918).

WSM_Fan: The correct answer is... any of the Winchester pre-64 Model 70 SUPERGRADE Rifles with 25" or 26" barrels! These beautiful Rifles with these length barrels came in 458 Winchester Magnum, 375 H&H Magnum, 220 Swift & 300 H&H Magnum calibers! Aaaahhhhh........ Swoon........ Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

I know there are better looking rifles but I sure like a Winchester Featherweight with some good wood. I like the flur d li checkering and schabel forend. Those high grade Brownings in model 71 and 1886 are sure nice though.

Custom Ruger #1's are particularly easy on the eyes, IMO My sentiments exactly! One with real nice wood in something like 7x57 or 257 Roberts! Or a larger bore like 375 H&H. Classic and beautiful!
