Show us some Fiberglass!

I’ve always thought that was Roy Weatherby’s masterpiece.
I have to agree. Others are now faster but at the price of significantly more recoil. I think the 340 is the perfect balance between the 338 Win & the 338 Lapua. I've taken pigs, deer, antelope, caribou & elk with that rifle. Just love the 340. But then there is the 257 WM. Talk about best of breed! The 340 is what I call Thor's Hammer & the 257 is the Finger of God!

My “drag it through the mud” gun. .458 Lott on an Interarms Mark X action. Glass stock is similar to the A Square design but I’m not sure what it is. I like shooting this one, though I think I’ll put a new pad on it; this one has seen better days.

Looks like a well used tool!

Almost no blue left on it… action is smooth as butter, though, and feeds and extracts perfectly. A good trigger, too.

I wish I knew who owned it previously… they certainly put a lot of miles on it. It’s a no nonsense rifle with one fixed rear blade and big bead up front.

And my T3 Superlite 7mmRM

Both wearing B&C Medallist stocks. My guns are just tools. But they work, and I'd rather spend money using them ;)
 
All 3 are fantastic. I'd be lying if I didn't say I couldn't take my eyes off the Walnut one! ;-0
Nice trophies too....

Yeah that's a stunner, it's @Mark R 416 Rem. ;)
 
On my custom 7mm STW. H-S precision built the stock. Originally it was my hard weather rifle but now I have several similar and this one doesn’t get out much. I keep thinking of re barreling it but can’t decide on what-

And this one on my savage .223 I had this one “dipped” for the camo pattern-it was quite plain before that

I'd consider rebarreling in .338 diameter. Rem Ultra Mag would be a great fit with a 26" Hart Barrel.
 
Here is my 28 nosler with the stock it came in. One of my favorite rifles for sure. It was snowing when I left the truck and I killed this buck not long after it quit. It was a plain grey stock and I added blue, black and white speckling sometime later

It's my "Sendero" or Beanfield rifle. Pictures don't do it justice. My South African PH called it "blaffende meisie" or barking girl in Afrikanns
There are some nice rifles being shared, but I am really digging that mcwalnut. I have only seen them online and need to actually get one in my hands. I am liking the idea of building one with a bluing colored cerakote to maintain the romance of a traditional rifle with modern materials. I came close to having one built in .280 Ai a while back, just couldn’t make up my mind on what I was really trying to accomplish with the rifle so I put the brakes on the project.
 
I've never been a fan of fiberglass rifles and until recently the only one I owned was the 340 Weatherby Magnum on the right.
I always called this rifle my 'Meat Stick'. The 340 WM, like Thor's Hammer, near or far big or small whatever the weather with the Leupold scope and scope covers this combo has always gotten it done.

Then something happened. I decided I wanted to own a few more fiberglass rifles. On left is a Christensen Arms in 22-250 Remington and center is a Best of the West in 6.5 PRC that I just picked up for a Red Stag hunting this coming Sept. in Scotland.

I guess one has to keep their mind open or you'll miss out! Let's see your fiberglass....

So, no muzzle brake on the 340 Weatherby, but a brake on the 22-250?
