The Wundhammers have possibly the most beautiful lines (to my eye) I've ever seen - something I didn't expect having never before seen a high quality full length shot of one.
you are right that Wundhammer rifles do have nice lines, but what really sets them apart from virtually all the other sporters of the era, and to be truthful most rifles made since, was their in-hand feel. The Wundhammer grip, which has been so overdone on most rifles since, is so subtle that goes unnoticed until you handle the rifle. He knew how to make a slim, lively and lightweight stock that was also controllable.
I am anxiously awaiting the return of # 258 and #377 back to Alaska.
