A Custom built 350 Rem Mag - Leonard Mews Mannlicher Stock

I recently purchased this nice Custom rifle from a seller on a classified forum. It appears the Douglas barrel and metal-work was done by PD Cain in Dec. 1966 as marked "Douglas Barrel by PD Cain 122966", but the stock / checkering was gone by Leonard Mews. I found Leonard's a very light stamp in the barrel channel - now enhanced with some dark stain. The seller's description tells all. A field test will follow next week.

as always, your comments are most welcome :D

Looks absolutely sweet for an 80-ish year old action refurbished 50 years ago. A real gorgeous safe queen built by someone who rea;;y knew what they were doing! You hit a gold mine

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
