I'm in the process of working up a .375 WSM. I also got my Browning B71 .50-110 back from having some work done on it and it's now ready for dangerous game use.

I don't have any draw tags this year. OTC Colorado elk or bear is a definite possibility. I'm planning to try to draw a Wyoming cow tag for an outfitted hunt next year.

No customs, but bought a few 99’s, a 32-40, 284, 300 Savage, probably others I can’t remember this year. Oh, a little Ruger American 223 to fool around with. I do have a 99 being rebarreled to 338 Federal. I guess that qualifies as a custom. It has custom wood already on it.

Huntsman,
Is a gunsmith and/or bedding needed to put together a build like your 17WSM? Just curious what it takes to get one 100% complete and if additional smithing is needed for a tack driver. It's a great setup.

Neither of my RimX's are bedded. Pillars come installed on the AG stocks, and so far both are tackdrivers. A 'smith did thread, chamber and screw the barrel on the WSM. A Proof prefit on the 22LR was installed by me.

No custom rifles this year other than a Sportsman 78 in 308. Will be going into a Brown Precision and depending on how it shoots, may be going for a rebore to 358Win.

I've got a "new to me" custom Mauser 30-06. Plan to test it out on whitetails this fall if all goes well.
