Westley Richards .416
|
|
Time for this gun to head home. The original stock split, so I restocked it to factory original specifications. The rifle is a Westley Richards .416 Rigby which was made in 2008.

Very nice work Aaron. Thanks for posting.
I would not be impressed if a WR from 2008 stock split!!!

Very nice rifle.
I also like "Suhler Einhakmontage" to mount scopes.

I would most certainly agree there!
I know you can't see inside a piece of wood, especially a very figured one & hence lies the problem, more chances to break along one of those figured lines!! 
Superb workmanship there Aaron, certainly WR standard for sure!

Split may have been a poor word to use. It broke in shipping and was repairable but peace of mind for the owner was more important.

Holy crap, that stock is a truly beautiful example of craftsmanship. Whilst the stock is perfect, I never understand the attraction of that level of action engraving however

Speaking of which, what type of walnut is that, and who supplied that exceptional blank?

It’s Turkish walnut supplied by Luxus Walnut.
