Hi-line Montana
I've always been interested in fitted rifle cases. I believe they add to a nicely finished out rifle. In my quest to downsize "normal" guns and get some nice examples, I'm wanting to get a couple of these made.

I've found one place https://2caseit.com/gun-cases however found zero references to people actually using them.

I would be fine getting the empty, bare case and then taking a winter project in finishing it, however been unable to find any.

Has anyone else had one custom made? Or any suggestions?

Thank you in advance.

Thanks for that image. I can use it as reference.

I made cases for my shotguns but used custom cut foam. I have enough cherry left to make a case for my 404J. Was just about to start that project. Rigby cases have stitched leather belts with brass buckles to secure both rifle and bolt. I presume the case in your photo has bolt stashed in the covered box in upper right corner. Oil and/or cleaning fluid must be in the other covered compartment. I have found Visene eyedrops dispenser good for storing gun oil. Does not leak and can be accurately applied without making a mess. Hoppes #9 cleaner was more problematic. After several leaking failures (the stuff eats up plastic seals in lids), I discovered small travel/sample bottle for Listerene holds up. Both are now securely stored in the drawer of the trap range box I made.

I was looking at Rookhawks, however the dimensions appeared smaller than I would need for any of my bolt actions. His browning case was appealing but a bit more modern style than I was going for.
 
Yes they're ideal. I just can find "ZERO" feedback anywhere on the web. I'm a bit leary of sending my rifle to them to fit to the case (which they explictly ask for on their website) without a bit of reassurance.
 
I can’t assist with members outside Australia but I have had old shot gun cases restored and take down rifles fitted to oak / leather and canvas tropical cases by Des Hill at Coolum Beach on the Sunshine Coast . Des sources and restores gun cases and seems to be able to find cases to fit most firearms . I have just purchased this lovely old Greener case and it will fit my Rigby Shikari 500 double . I have trade labels , accessories and cost will be a fraction of the new price from Rigby. Des will reblock inside of case to fit rifle and accessories . Pics of this case are below . Once I get back to OZ I will post photo of the 318 and 425 WR in their cases .

Hello, My wife and I hunted with Marius 2 years ago. He fit us into his schedule after a different outfitter "bailed" on us. He was always very good with communications and although we didn't end up meeting him personally, he called us multiple times during our hunt to make sure things were going well. We were very happy with him.

Reach out to the guys at Epic Outdoors.

They will steer you right for landowner tags and outfitters that have them.

I have held a membership with them for years and they are an invaluable resource.

Way better that asking random people on the internet...WAY better

Skydiver386,

Did you ever find your 30-06 CZ550? I own a fairly solid conditioned one, if you wanted to talk.
