Went to the Tulsa gun show today, I was just planning to window shop, maybe find parts for a couple of projects, but I ended up with a pre-64 Win mod 70 action and stock. Now what to make from it. I'm thinking 458 Win Mag. Somewhere I have a 458 blank, so 458 caliber is a no-brainer, but maybe a Lott, but that would require more work being done to it, and different bottom metal.
 
.458 Win Mag would be a great choice.
 
Lol, my wife hates it when stuff follows me home from the gun show!
 
458 Lott would be my first choice but the 458 WM isnt a bad choice.

It must've been pre-64 Saturday

If it didn't have a magnum bolt face I would do a lovely light weight 257 Roberts.

Hello there. I’ve been wanting to introduce myself personally & chat with you about hunting Nilgai. Give me a call sometime…

Best,

+1 Great to deal with. I purchased custom rifle. No issues.

I saw you were looking for some Swift A-Frames for your 9.3. I just bought a bulk supply of them in the 285g. version. If Toby's are gone, I could let 100 go for $200 shipped you are interested.
Thanks,
Gary
