Superb custom 7mm Remington Magnum on a refined FN Mauser action. Crafted circa 1980, this rifle was created by a trio of riflery giants. METAL: Tom Burgess executed all aspects of the metalwork, including extensive refinement and reshaping of the action, tang safety and mounting system. The bolt handle (checkered knob), shroud and release are all new, as is the complete bottom metal assembly. WOOD: Monty Kennedy shaped what literally defines the classic American sporter stock from an outstanding blank of exhibition French walnut. Appointments include an ebony forend tip, outstanding borderless checkering highlighted by graceful ribbons, inletted sling swivel studs and a skeleton grip cap with widow’s peak. ENGRAVING: Franz Marktl (signed) added an intricate and flawless bordered scroll to the receiver, mounts, shroud, grip cap, skeleton butt plate and crossbolt to nearly full coverage – the pattern extending along the barrel. However, his masterwork game scene (Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep) on the floorplate and cardinal (bolt handle) are so realistic in features and dimension they defy description. OPTIC: A compact Leupold Vari-X II 2-7x is mounted and ready for the range. DIMENSIONS: Weight is 8.4 pounds and length-of-pull is 13.5 inches. CONDITION: Possibly fired but certainly never hunted, it remains in nearly 100 percent condition.
