Holy smokes. Awesome history skywag! That 30-06 is beyond nice.
Guy, that’s great you’ve got a piece of his history as well! Great rifles and great thread.

I could sit and stare at those beauties on the table all day long.. I'd just imagine they shoot lights out. Honestly, I'd probably be afraid of scratching them in the brush where I hunt.

Jkob, someone recently posted that PRC stocks were designed by Al Biesen and Cloward made the molds. I have no idea if that is true.

Just for fun. JK has passed...........but his art remains. ![[Linked Image from imagizer.imageshack.com]](https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1280x1024q90/923/UaVkHo.jpg) Absolutely drop-dead gorgeous rifles. Wow! Jim was a top-notch marksman, hunter and rifle builder. He taught many of us a lot, and is missed. Regards, Guy

I have an excellent service I can recommend; I can send you their name via PM if you wish.

When did Mr Cloward pass away? I just don't know exactly. There is no obituary. But a friend told me he passed and all his machines were sold off at an auction. All the old phone numbers are no longer in service. Maybe Annette is still here.........I don't know. Jim NEVER had ANY internet savvy......at all......completely old school. Erik, his son, has a Facebook page that hasn't had an entry for a decade.
