    Help with German Proofs/Engraver

    I won an auction on a cool little Ruger Bearcat that I'd like some help with figuring out. The serial number puts it at 1972 production, and I enhanced some pictures of the proof/possible engraver marks. The eagle with the N underneath is of course the "nitro" proof, while the cross hatched...

    416 Rigby with Ammo and Rings

    '99 manufacture CZ 550 Magnum in 416 Rigby. Not 100% condition but darned close.Trigger is well tuned and it feeds/ejects smoothly oriented in any direction, including upside down. Comes with what I believe are Warne 1" low QD rings and 15 rounds of HSM 350gr Barnes ammo. Will ship in a new...

    45 ACP BRNO Mauser

    Lots of fun, but would be even more fun if it were left handed like me! This looks to have been a professional or at lease semi-professionally done conversion. Phenomenal Timeny trigger, Timney safety, and Japanese Nikon scope sighted in for 25 yards with 230gr FMJ. Finish looks like...

    If you like big bore custom Mausers, you have to see this!

    It's even a BRNO! Not exactly what you had in mind, is it? In all seriousness it's pretty neat. It looks like the Rhinelander Arms mag well, ejector, etc. but with a "professional" barrel job versus the Savage style lock nut barrel the conversion kits came with. Obviously a VZ-24 action and...

    Consensus on Length of Pull

    Well I just acquired the missing link in my battery of left hand CZ's, so I've been trying to figure out what I want to do to really make them a "set". The first and most obvious thing that came to mind while handling each rifle back to back was making the LOP consistent across the 3, and thus...

    Left Hand A-Bolt .375 H&H

    1992 manufacture with desireable 26" barrel. Browning's website claims 7lbs 3oz but my scale says 7lbs 8.9oz-- either way it's a light and handy rifle! I was considering sending it to Extreme Rifle Works for a chop and custom kevlar/carbon stock to make it really handy but I'll soon have another...

    RJ Renner vs Complete Restock on CZ Safari?

    I've got a 550 Safari I should hopefully be taking possession of at some point and I keep reading how the stock is like shouldering a fence post. I've heard nothing but postivie things about Renner's work so I gave him a call, and it sounds like it would be just shy of $1700 to "slenderize" the...

    For Sale 300 H&H, Etc; Raising Funds For .375 H&H

    I've got the opportunity to buy one of my dream rifles (left hand 550) so I'm selling off some things to raise money for it and all the related reloading stuff, optics, etc. I'm pretty new here but I have some of it cross listed on Gunbroker (at a higher price) and I've sold a gun to @BnC 04 a...

    Model 70 Classic 300 RUM

    With all of the (comparatively) cheap .404 Jeffery ammo available right now I need to get rid of temptation and send this one down the road. I bought it with that in mind, but really need to hold out for a left handed rifle (hopefully a 550!). Pristine condition and would make an excellent donor...

    .458 Remington Ultra Mag

    I've been tossing around ideas for the Model 70 Classic in 300 RUM I have, and remembered a gun my brother owned briefly back in '09 or so and that I had a dummy round still on hand. A guy had it built for a dangerous game hunt on a R700 (I know, the horror). It had this cheesy single stack...

    Model 70 Long vs Magnum Action w/pics

    I'm sure this has been covered somewhere on the world wide web but here it goes. I've heard a lot of claims about similarities and differences particularly when the subject of a big bore conversion comes up. Here are my two cents with two Classics in hand, one in .338 Win (normal long action)...

    Thoughts on the 350 Legend

    I've always had a soft spot for medium bores, and have had a project in mind for a number of years that I was able to complete just a few months ago--a light and handy .35 cal CZ 527! I had theorized it would be a good pairing, but the finished product has really impressed me. As I look...
