Keep in mind, if you have a C&R, they give you a discount of parts, but not Gunsmithing services. Im not sure how that would work on a rifle build.

Nice.

It's amazing how a tiny change like dumping that oogly bladed trigger can improve a rifle's looks.

For some reason, the stainless lightweight version with the sculpted receiver and fluted bolt appeals to me a bit. Maybe it's so oogly it's good-looking.🤔

Thanks for asking about the ER Shaw MK VII rifle. The average turnaround time on a MK VII build is in the 12 month area. We require a 50% deposit to submit the order for manufacturing, the balance can be paid upon completion of the rifle. Upon completion we will need an FFL dealer in your home area to send in a copy of their license so we can ship your gun out to them. All of the stocks are glass and pillar bedded and the barrel channel is free floated. All barrels are crowned, the 11 degree target crown is std. Rifles chambered in 220 Swift will be single-shot right hand only. We use Grade 3 walnut stocks as our standard. We do offer a Grade 5 walnut for an additional $150.00.


Same deal they quoted me a few years back(except the wood upgrades weren't available then)...had the rifle in hand in 7 months.

Salvages shoot, their "cool factor" is pretty low... blush

IIRC, JB did an article on a couple of Shaw rifles, one in 6.5-284, the other in 6.5-06. His report was quite favorable, as I recall.

See if you can Google that article, I don't have the link.

If you're uber cool (like ingwe) you just gotta have an equally cool rifle, such as a McFlame, .223AI, etc. Salvage need not apply... shocked

Nothing to do with shooting tiny little groups... smile

It's about style points... wink
