I don't have it yet but it will be here before X-Mass. I stopped by the gunsmith's today and he was checkering the stock on a full Manlicher stocked custom rifle. I used a 1909 Argentine Mauser action and a classic chambering of 6.5 X 55. It will be sighted in in time for the late doe season

My smith is retiring for the most part so this will undoubtedly be my last custom rifle.

I did forget another rifle and probably one of my smartest gun deals ever. I've collected pre64 M70's for years and had a 250 Savage (250-3000) a rare and expensive rifle. I sold it and bought a Remington 700 classic in the same caliber and put a pile of cash in the bank!
