Custom and Semi custom rifle photos/porn

I do really like TT Proctor rifles. And the really good thing about the ones built military mauser actions with thumb cutouts on the side of the action is that US prohibits the import of such rifles. Meaning that there is much pressure on pricing at auctions etc.

Downside is that they are all right handed otherwise I would have got one.

Here is another by TT Proctor, this ones in the venerable but excellent 375H&H

One for the haters…..! Custom 6mm Creed barrel made by Michael Rainback who also refinished the terrible Blaser stock to what it should have been when it came out of the factory. Shoots quarter MOA with 108Gr ELD.View attachment 254878

I like my R8… but I like yours a lot more!! What a classy rifle.

Such a classic looking rifle, she's a beauty!

This use to float my canoe back in the 80’s and may still do it for someone, and at not a lot of money:

For Sale: - Dumoulin 243

I purchased this rifle from Dave Lowery (Guns) in 1982. It was my first centre fire rifle and I bagged my first Highland red with it. I’ve never reloaded for it but it will shoot sub MOA with 100g RWS. Priced to sell so sparing you the sales pitch. Rifle may only be viewed at and purchased...

Is that Steve’s?

Is that Steve’s?

I hope not as his Hydrographics sprayed green rifle is/was in 6mm PPC!

Sorrry thought I recognised it

This I believe is at least third hand to me and shows that bargains of quality spec can still be had. It was purchased on here so the previous owner may recognise it and confirm the spec that I believe to be.
Nesika K single shot, Jewel trigger, Kreiger barrel (10 twist) bedded in a McMillan Lazeroni. I requested the previous owner to ship it straight to Callum for checking over and barrel shorten to 23" whilst I was waiting for renewal and variation. Callum suggested a couple of tweaks whilst he had it for the barrel shorten/thread before he was happy to release it and all I did thereafter was ship the stock to Eryl Jones for the adjustable cheek piece mod.

Lovely! That’s exactly the stock I would love to purchase for whatever 6MM PPC I finally go for but fear you can no longer get them.

Love the cheek piece mod but could never get on with the lazeroni stock - really dislike the cant in the grip.

Would be very interested to see a photo of the other side of the stock. I’ve got a std McM thumb hole with the scalloped “offside” and wondering if this cheek piece mod would work (better than the camping mat and gaffer tape I currently use )

Hold the line caller, I will get you a pic of the same mod on my Mc Millan TH stock.

This what you mean ?
The black strip on the top is just self adhesive neoprene for a bit of insulation on the cold mornings.

Very tidy. Any idea how much weight it adds?

No Sorry I didn`t do a before and after.

I’ll keep this rolling!

Tikka T3 Varmint in .22BR by Alan Maughan, in dire need of a better scope!
I think it’s a 24” 8 twist Bergara.
It has a sleeved mod done on it as a one off/rnd/proto type deal, bolt cycle feels like a Sako 75. Shoots 50gr SBKs @ circa 3800fps. This will be dedicated to night time work with a PVS14 when it gets a better scope.



Sako 75 .22PPC, I forget who did the work now but it has a 24” Border cut rifled barrel and resides in a MacMillan Sako varmint stock. Started out as a 6PPC. Stunningly accurate, and devastating! I think this combination of action and cartridge is my favourite, certainly sees the most action!
Delivers 50gr SBKs nearly as fast as the BR!


Remington 700 in .284 win. Blueprinted action with a Kreiger 24” cut rifled barrel. Again I can’t remember who built this! Shocking. I did have some minor mods done by Paddy Dane though.
In its MacMillan HTG here but it’s also got an A5 as well, both Devcon bedded by myself.
Calvin elite 2 stage trigger


I run Jetz’s on every thing.

Deer must simply fall over from fear when they ‘clock’ that wee package!

Did you gunsmith overdo the freebore? Those rounds look like some I’ve loaded for my 6.5X55 when chasing the lands due to a somewhat eroded throat.

You should read up on the 6.5 PRC...

You should read up on the 6.5 PRC...

I fully appreciated that when typing but as you well know I’m very much one for an aesthetically pleasing outcome so if it looks good on the page I’m happy!

If it’s any consolation to the owner of said 6.5PRC I adopt exactly the same approach to seating a 35g hornet head but then I also crimp which is the poor man’s approach to that achieved c/o a neck bushing die.
