I'm a big fan of single shot rifles. This is the latest done on a reworked #1 action. I chose a classic deer cartridge the 300 Savage. It's going to Texas for a free range Aoudad hunt this fall. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/qMkvr4m2/IMG-1200.jpg)

Hmm. My Kimber Montana in 7-08 is what I'd build for a lower 48 rifle but I'll play.
CRF Win 70 action
2 panel checkered bolt knob
Exhibition grade walnut, ebony tip and inletted sling studs
Skeletonized grip cap with checkering inside
Red recoil pad
Fleur-de-lis checkering
Gold wedding band on shank
Slow rust blued
Cartridge is the hard part. 7-08, 30-06, 7 Rem Mag, 280 Rem, 7 Mauser all work
Scope - TBD BUT PROB leup 2.5-8x
That’d be a helluva build.
