Nothing like seeing photos of well executed single shots, bolt guns and double guns. Please post away. I'm sick of swirly plastic and textured metal work.

Yes, it is a VO Vapen takedown. I would have to win the lotto before I could afford it. I'd really rather have a Martini and Hagn. Neither are very realistic for me, but I wouldn't need a Saudi prince to name me as his sole heir in order to own a M&H.

Claude,
Here is some quality gun porn for you. Both the first and second rifle were put together by James Anderson and Dean Zollinger. Top one is my Dad's and the stainless is mine. The Ruger #1 is my sweetheart in 7x57.

No comparison to the outstanding stuff already on display, but just to add to the festive mood. A couple of simple old cartridges - Dale Goens plain old M-70 270 WCF (on top) and Bob Owen Springfield in 30-06 (below).

You are too modest. Those two rifles are the best of the best. Wish they were mine and you had something better!
