Very well done!!!! WOW I like that, with a good brake shooting the larger 338's just put a smile on a guys face don't it What weight did it come in at?

Nice I love the colors!!! Great job on the break, I would love to be able to do that someday

It ways 13.7lbs according to the bathroom scale.

Yes the 300gr's do put a smile on your face.

Oh and the coal is 4.13, lots of room for powder.

The gun looks like it turned out very nice. Love the photos with the mountains in the background. Can't wait to see the next photos of the rifle leaning up against your trophy !!

Sweet looking rifle..
Where are you finding the snow already?

 

[steelshooter]

I also like the rifle and the scenery, I've never actually seen snow. We don't get it here in my part of Australia.

I took the pix over the weekend in north east Washington around 5000ft.

I was wondering if that wasn't the case, I am ready for the snow level to drop here!

Nice-looking gun and I really like the brake. The more I hear and read about Kevin Cram the more I like him. Good post.
