While it's just a regular rifle that fits me and shoots the others above are masterpieces. Here is a view of it's forend. Also the 300 WM is not my favorite.

Now that a nice rifle. I have a FWT 358 and it's a great caliber. Very, very tempting

probably not up to the level of some of the ones shown above, but I'm proud of this one. It's a 264 Win Mag built on an early 50's action with a factory barrel. Everything was teflon coated. Had Roger Biesen carve the stock for me. Pictures aren't the greatest, but you get the idea.

Roger is about one of the nicest guys you'll ever talk to or deal with. Wish I had and/or could afford more of his work.

I could see myself sitting in a deer blind and just staring at it. It couldn't be built today for $10K.

I hear what you're saying...I miss it all the time. But it wasn't getting hunted and it went to someone very sick that wanted to leave each of his son's a special rifle......it was the right thing to do...I think?

tsquare, those are all beautiful. I am probably too biased towards any pre 64 model 70 though...
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. BSA MAGA
