Fine Custom Heavy Rifles

I just held possibly the finest bolt action rifle Ive ever held. You have to ask, Is it truly worth $33,000 Dollars? All I know is if it were in my budget it would be in my safe right now

I think those of us who have never held such a work of art (much less used, which I still haven't) fail to truly understand what we are discussing when the topic comes up. As long as it's a hypothetical we can't see past the price tag. In actuality it's a whole different ballgame.

To quote a Country Song... "A Cowboy once Had a Millionaire's Dream".
 
And the photo please.
 
Here's one I've been lusting over, a Hartmann and Weiss Magnum Mauser in 505 Gibbs

But I'm pretty happy with my working man's CZ 550 in 500 Jeffery :)

Beautiful! Just realized I didn't put any specifics in the original post.

D'Arcy Echols Classic Heavy Sporter in .458 Lott with Gost Ring and No Provisions for Scope Mount.
 
2L8, maybe you can find a picture of it on line, or just ask someone at the shop where you saw it send you a photograph. Which you can then share with us. If it is really that nice, ROOKHAWK probably has one.:):)
 
Couldn't find a photo of the .458 Lott but it was very similar to the .505 Gibbs built on a Hartmann and Weiss on the D' Arcy Echols Site and the wood was closer to the Left Hand M70 .404 Jeffery.

Im not having much luck with links on a cell phone but the photos don't do these rifles justice. I've seen high end jewlery with less attention to detail. I mean a 100 rounds with specific development and custom loading to the specific rifle. I thought that was reserved for high end doubles.

Back After a Long Time – Hello Again!


Hi everyone,


I’ve been a member since 2015 but haven’t been active since 2017. Life got busy, especially with building my second business. Still, I’ve kept my passion for hunting and followed things from afar. Now that I have more time, I’m excited to reconnect, contribute, and be part of the community again.


All the best,
ANDY

I'd like a bag of 100. I could actually pick it up since I'm in North Irving, but if you prefer, shipping it is fine.
