VERY nice rifles here guys. Wow!
Since .375's and the like have invaded this "big bore" thread, I thought I'd show off a couple of .375's that I really enjoy:
Model 70, by Michael Scherz:
And the Ruger Number One that has served well as a bear rifle here in Washington:

Elkhunternm - love the straight grain in that one. Looks like some serious scope rings as well. Talley? You use that for elk hunting? Guy

Those are Warne's and yes I took it elk hunting. That stock is factory as far as I know. It has a Leupold 1x-4x in Weavers now.

Westley Richards 500/450 No. 1 Express. Actually makes a dandy rifle for medium game with Trailboss loads.

Lovely rifle there Biebs. What is it like to shoot? Do you hunt with it much? Would like to pull the trigger on Frank's MRC actioned AHR 600 but way too short for me (need at least 14.5"). Pity. Cheers, Chris

I'm going to go and shoot my 375 H&H right now....
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style.
You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole.

That .378 is very pretty. I dig the .378, wish I had one.
You can piddle with the puppies, or run with the wolves... Better living through chemistry!

Am pleased with these sights & scope mounts on the .375:
The stock that grabbed my attention while the rifle was just sitting on the rack, waiting to ambush me:
