baldie Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Finished this one today. The idea being a stalking rifle, short barrelled at 20" and light enough for stalking, but with a barrel thick enough not to "walk" when park culling etc. Its a Valkyrie Thor action, with a 20 moa rail.The barrel is a sassen and helically fluted. Screwcut 18mm x 1 and invisible cap. The paint is Ceracoat H series in Titanium with armour black flutes. The colour is a lot more subtle....it was very sunny and i'm no photographer...a really lovely colour. The trigger is a timney and the gun is sat in a one-off carbon fibre stock, fitted with pillars and a standard Remington floor plate....all to keep the weight down. The gun weighs lbs. This rifle will be for sale immediately following a photo shoot for the magazines very shortly. Anyone interested, drop me a PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baldie Posted February 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 No. The chap makes this one stock, available through myself or a few other dealers who have had them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swarovski1 Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Wow that is something unusual to my eyes, that barrel fluting looks a mare nevermind the bolt, the stocks look is very retro, ive not seen that look before either, nice work dave.

So I don't suppose he'd do a lefty one suitable for a m595 action? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
