DREAM RIFLE

[anschuter2013]

I currently have a BAT B 30BR in a Curly Maple Roy Hunter stock that is OUT OF THIS WORLD Beautiful. I also have a Scoville stocked 6PPC that is a work of art. Yeah yeah, whatever...they're nice and all, but, ho hum.

But, ya know what I really want and can't have?

My DREAM rifle would be a Winchester 1894 lever chambered in Thudy-Thudy. It would be a short barreled Trapper layout with a color case hardened receiver, Angle Eject of course, but it would also have the Tang safety. No silly and unsightly side push button for me!!! Nice wood would be a plus, but let's not split hairs here, eh?

Not too awful much to ask for, right??? I'm all but certain that Winchester is listening...

What's your DREAM RIFLE?

I want a bespoke double one day

Mine is any true one hole shooter.

Purchased the nicest engraved Remington Hepburn I've ever seen for sale a couple weeks ago so I'm flying pretty high. But I guess a like new Ballard Rigby would be a nice dream rifle to aim for now.

 

[ShootDots]

I am with "TheOtherZilla"! I want rifle that has ZERO stress in the barrel, shoots at 1/4 m.o.a. out to 1000 and won't change point of impact as the barrel heats up! Oh and is extremely pleasing to the eye!

Mine is any true one hole shooter.

Not sure if that's your flags, you, or the luck of the day, but a good goal nonetheless...

M-60 !!!

 

[Walt Krafft]

I am a rifle guy. But I also collect Model 12 Winchesters. Just scored a 28 gauge to complete the collection. Exibition wood, factory rib, no stupid cutts, marvelous engraving. Life is good!

 

[Treerat-sniper]

A classic English double rifle ala Rigby or Holland & Holland (I suppose I would go slumming with a German double, those Krieghoffs & Heyms are pretty nice). I dream of Africa...

 

[gtl1946]

Just remember that y really don’t own them, you’re just the caretaker of them. Also your wife will sell it for what you told her you paid for it !!! OR you’ll be like me and no one in the family is interested in all that that stuff !!

 

[Matt_3479]

Honestly it would have to be another custom in any flavour that interest me... but it has to be wearing a Russo stock. I’ve been dying for one since I was 15

 

[Dusty Stevens]

Gotta be a huge caliber double rifle hand engraved for me. When i was in africa even the trackers had them. Pretty sad to see a nice bespoke holland double being used as a prybar to unstick a truck or beat a snake to death.

 

[Kracken McGraw]

I guess it’s always the next one!

 

[Intheshop]

Mines easy,just a nice clean.... well mint as long as we're rubbing lamps;

Old shiny R700 BDL 7mag with iron sights only,no scope.

For nostalgia’s sake, it’s my Grandfather’s Winchester Model 55 takedown in 30-30. Most of the blueing is worn off from use in the woods of the Catskill mountains. He took a lot of deer with that gun. It shoots pretty good.
For my builds, I’m satisfied with this one as fulfilling my dream. Wheeler did the barrel work. Borden repeater action with a Bix & Andy trigger topped with a Sightron 10-50. The stock by me. Not my best work, but it was my first. Just something about your “first”.

 

[INShooter]

Mine is a original Win 52 sporter.

 

[338 Mollett]

I can make an MG -42 work in a pinch.My bad ,I'm commenting out of need not admiration.
