Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Show a pic of the prettiest rifle you own....

If it shoots like this it's pretty, I don't care what it looks like.

Here are a few I like to shoot. The rifles are custom made by Dennis Olson in Plains, Montana.
They are: 6mm Remington, 220 Swift, .223 Remington,
and a .222 Remington.

These were made to shoot prairie dogs, and that is where I had them photographed.
This was a great place to shoot, but now that the plague has killed them all off,
I have to go with Mule Deer somewhere else to shoot.






The shotgun is a Westley Richards 10 gauge with 32 inch barrels.
It is an old Damascus with Stanton sidelocks. At 12 pounds, it
is a bit much to carry all day.



Here are 2 Colt's, both in 38-40, both with custom made buffalo
bone grips. One is a first generation with a rare barrel length
of 7 1/2 inches.



This colt is another first generation with custom made 1 piece
rosewood grips in 45 Colt.

Here are a few:

Im not sure why it struck me so strongly but this photo makes me long for summer. It just looks so warm.

I like synthetic and stainless! My two:


257 Roberts Kimber Montana



308 Sako 85 Finnlight

some real beauties here, I'm not worthy.

beauty is in the eye of the beholder right?

here's the best I can do right now.

That is a beutiful Winchester 88! Very Very nice.

one is a 375 H&H
one is a .338-06

You're from Minnesota, Grogel. Opening the refrigerator door makes you long for summer!

I let her go just the other day. So long Sako.

I don't have a pic to post here, but for all the money I've spent on a couple of my rifles...

I've got a Marlin 336, 30.30 with a Leupold FX-II 6x33 on a Leupold one-piece base, and leather cobra sling that's, to my eye, still the coolest looking of the lot. Go figure, eh?



Gotta say, there's some might fine shootin' irons showing on this thread. Nothing like a fine rifle, is there!

I am kinda proud of this puppy...

thanks ROMAC, you got some crazy cool stuff posted.

how do you come across a set of stocks like that for a 99? (the blonde?)

Grogel, I feel your pain.

This is Bullard Deluxe repeater with pistol grip checkered 3x wood and scheutzen buttplate:

Found one prettier than the Bullard. This is a Ross Scotch Deerstalker in .280 Ross that has been refined by Westley Richards. It is in nearly new condition. It is the finest Scotch Deerstalker extant:

Man! You guys are embarrassing me!!
This one is my all time fav.. A slightly remodeled Rem 700 in .270. I need to have it checkered one day.


This SAKO .358 is another I like. Pretty? I dunno. Effective? Damned right! It's going elking tomorrow, cause that's it's job.

Here's a few of them, definitely not all of them.

99RS, 1920, 99T and a 99R, all in 300 Sav.

Mr. RAS;
Thank you for the interesting thread and thanks to all who have responded.

This is my candidate, an old No. 1 that I made up a different fore end for and added a Gentry barrel band and a Moyers trigger as well.

Even though it's a bit heavy, sometimes it goes for walks with me and has put bullets into a couple of my biggest mule deer.

Thanks again to all who have responded.

Regards,
Dwayne

Not mine,

But my wife and I gave this to my father-in-law for Christmas this year. He helped us out a bunch.
