Just got an email from Karl saying he has finished my 270 Weatherby. I must say from the pictures that he sent me it is the nicest looking rifle of all my customs. Had Karl build it with a laminated for something different. Also had him set it up with a Banser stock. I think you would agree he did a great job on it.

I like the laminated stock and overall a pretty cool blueprint. Nice rifle for sure.

Awesome. Did the laminated stock come off of a B&C special edition Rem 700?

The stock was just a regular laminated stock from Remington. It was checkered by a women who use to work for Cooper rifles. I wanted a little something different from the standard checker. Little pricey though.The recoil pads was installed by Karl

Spoke to Karl and he said that the rifle was a shooter and it was shooting constant 3/8" groups with the loads he develop for it. Anyone considering having a rifle built should seriously consider Karl as their gunsmith

That has got to be the ugliest gun I have even seen - jerk! Thanks for nothing. I hope you are happy, making a grown man cry. Merry Christmas and Happy New year you Scrouge.
