Your best looking rifles?

A 257 WBY would be a great one to own, and that one has been dolled up to the apex.

The price is Wow wow and more WOW. $6999.00. Weatherby doesn't make the crown custom any more and this one is unfired NIB. :shock:FOTIS":xkfqecl8 said:

Very handsome rifles. Of course, I am partial to the Featherweight. I sure do like my .280 Featherweight; it has accounted for a good number of mule deer and whitetails.

Some people(even me) believe it´s blasphamy to chamber a M98 in a Weatherby caliber...
Here is a proof that it can be done quite nicely. Gunmaker: Karl Hein Ritterbusch.

Very attractive rifles, RM. Great character in the stock on your .416 Rigby. The Mauser is assuredly a beautiful piece.

Three great looking, even the Weatherby, classic old Mauser and Rigby rifles. Beautiful rifles.

Very nice stuff, fellows!
Most of my rifles don't qualify for this post. After being drug around sagebrush, cedars, rocks, pickup truck beds, saddle-scabbards and just plain being carried thru it all, after 60 years most are close to unrecognizable. But they served me well, and will until my last hunt.
" Hey, granpa, what ya goin' to kill with that piece of sh*t?", yup, I've heard it before. But later on, I might be the only hunter that hangs a tag on a carcass!
