This is going to be a great year!! Last September I did a brief tutorial on script and block letter gold inlay on Lindsay's forum. It encompassed inlay on an action and barrel for one of Steve's rifles. In addition, there is fine, hand cut knurling on the sling swivel buttons.

I was honored to work on this rifle as this rifle is to accompany Steve (and myself) to Reno in 2011. Steve is seeking full membership in the ACGG.
This rifle features a blued stainless steel barrel (yes, I said blued stainless), a Remington 700, left handed receiver, fantastic walnut + metal/wood fit and 22 lpi hand checking.
This rifle was owner financed and the owner has decided that more gold inlay is needed ... including the floor plate. (great for me!!) I think before any engraving goes on this rifle, it needs to be seen.
I try to surround myself with talented individuals who I know will rise to the top. I hope you enjoy the photos we took outside in the 15 degree weather today ... Steve Cale is going to put West Virginia on the map and those of you who see this rifle in person next year will agree.
p.s. If there are any photos missing that you would like to see .... just ask and I will get them next week.
