Just picked this up yesterday. I don't usually post pics, but I thought this one was too nice not too.

Custom build: 300 Varminter (.300WSM throated for either 110gr V-Max or 125gr Ballistic TIp; approx. 3900-4100fps and 3800-4000fps respectively)
32" 1.25" dia. Bartlien barrel, BAT Model M action (diamond fluted bolt), 1.5oz jewel trigger, music grade curly maple stock.

I lack the skills to really capture just how awsome this rifle looks. The dark grain isn't always visable from every angle. The best way I can describe it is that it's similar to the light on the bottom of a pool; that shimering effect. Going to talk a friend who has camera skills into getting some better pictures next weekend.

For those on broadband who want high-res shots: http://yfrog.com/0sdsc0006hcjx

Claro crotch walnut. Unfinished blank, so it will look much nicer once it is finished. Wife talked me into this one. :clap:
