Yep, Dave was a big fan of the .338, and knew how to build 'em!

Where did you hunt musk ox? Just curious. Got my only one in Nunavut, about half a mile from the Arctic Ocean on what was called the "summer" hunt--in late August when they're rutting. Though my bull was so old he wasn't interested anymore. The rifle was a custom that Dave did about half the work on.....
