I'd like to say thanks to a few fellow members here for their help.

Gunnut308, (Roger) was in a Porn shop (or did he say Pawn shop?), and spied this Lefty Winchester .300 WSM. He put a shout out here in the classifieds and Roger purchased the rifle for me and shipped it to me, Thanks Roger.

Nsaqam, Luepy 2.5x8 VX-3 and Snk rings, Thanks Bud..

The orignal wood stock went to KKalaska, in Alaska, (duh!)

Rick Bin, the Micky stock. Rick and I had several p.m.s regarding this problem child. grin...

I went with Standard fill, and the Rifle now weighs 7-13 with scope mounted. Original weight with wood was 8lbs 4 oz's.

The orignal wood FW weighed 36 oz. The Micky FW weighed 29 oz.

Sweet rifle Kenneth!!

Don't let these screwed up starboard siders get you down. You and I both know that a shifter on the port side is the only way proper riflemen operate.

I really like the look of that Birdsong finish.

Factory sporter, The rifle is considered to be a Featherweight, but the WSM calibers came with sporter weight contours,

A very handy, ergonomic, and balanced package, I like it...
