I have built everything I've wanted or thought I wanted but another one always creeps into my subconscious then begins to transform to reality. I've been on a single shot kick the last couple of customs and it's continuing. I dropped off a Ruger #1 action just last week to my smith. He'll tweak this and recontour some of the metal. The barrel is a McGowen half round half octagon with a slight taper.Skelton grip cap, metal but plate, custom quarter rib, Tally rings, island swivel bases, ebony forend tip. All appropriate metal color case hardened and exhibition English walnut nicely checkered. My caliber of choice on this one is a bit odd to some but I like the classic calibers and mostly hunt deer here in Michigan with the occasional trip to Wyoming and Texas in October so this will be in 300 Savage.
Down the road some I'm thinking a Hagen action and a 250 Savage would make for a good pair.
