A thing of beauty and a joy forever. Nicely done.
To my eyes, a classic single shot cries out for a Unertl/Fecker/Litschert/Targetspot scope. Evidently a lot of other guys think so too, judging from the high prices they fetch these days.
John Keats was right...
Exquisite workmanship, classic lines.
Don't get much better than that...

It's inletted good and tight. I'm just using the factory hanger, etc. I have the hole covered with an escutcheon. The fore end is bedded a lot tighter than it was in the factory stock. I'm crossing my fingers that it shoots as it did before.
I'm really flattered. Thanks.
The kicker is that this is my next summer's match rifle. I will be shooting it in 100 yd. benchrest matches that are held locally. It shot extremely well when I test fired it in the pattern stocks this summer... about 3/8" at 100 yds. on my range. I have shot competitive benchrest for forty years and my first guns were .222's. I have a pretty good idea how to make them shoot.
