A project rifle I made a few years ago, more moving game and usefull to a bit over 300m. 1909 action chosen for me by Kai Hauk out of a truck load, Lothar Walther Barrel 308 20" fitted by STL rifles Germany. I made and fitted a carbon stock, reworked an AI type floorplate to run AI type mags. Rifle weighs in at 3.0kg and is brutally strong, ultra reliable and 1/4" groups have been produced. Most of my guests love this rifle.

Yes, looks like the weight of it broke the action!

One of the last Sauer 90's in 6.5X55SM.

Dodgy calibre but nice wood!

If you would cycle it you would be astonished. The rim of the original 7.65x53 arg was much narrower than the rim of a 308 and she would not feed. That was a good thing because I could shape the extractor exactly right that she feeds really smooth. Took me several hours.

Yes, I got it done a while back after giving up trying to find a decent second hand Rigby or similar.
Love it, it's the Sunday, holiday and fine day rifle.

Finally here is the perfect rifle. Ron Wharton and Marcus Hunt at their best

I could stand to see more pictures of all these rifles, from other angles, up close details, etc. I would like to know more about the makers and specifications the Marcus and Hunt bolt action and the single shot.

This is a Ron Wharton Rigby .275 custom rifle built on a commercial Obendorf action with a Border barrel and Timney trigger with 3 position flag safety. Sadly Ron, a safari rifle legend, died a couple of years ago. Marcus, son of the famous Ken Hunt did the engraving. I wanted Scotland meets Africa. It has Celtic engraving and a gold Springbok inlaid into the floorplate. Classic safari barrel band and no sights or front stud - I use a rucksack in Scotland instead of bipod

It has taken all 6 UK deer with 150g bullets and African antelope from Springbok to Eland and Croc using 175g partitions You get a better feel for the engraving on attached pic

That's a beautiful rifle, Sh1kar. I mean, it lacks shotgun barrels, but other than that, lovely!
