Contest topic: Factory Rifles

Whether they are Rugers, Benjamins or Rigby's they need a home here


Now this should be a good and easy topic to get a lot of photo entries. I know I have a cheap Savage with a beautiful Boyds stock :redneck: ...that I need to take some photos of for another reason....So one of those photos should show up in this thread before thanksgiving
:cbpour:

New contest format. New rules. See link for rules.

How about my .45 Cal Percussion Target Rifle with set triggers for a start. It is a nice shooter, lots of fun. Yes I have a bullet mold for it too.

Sav. 99 in 300 Sav. I acquired the rifle with no iron sights and a scratched up stock. I refinished the stock to my liking and put a nice scope on it, never been able to find any replacement sights. Shoots cast lead bullets like it was built for it.

Mossberg Patriot in .375 Ruger. I know it's not a real DGR and I have nicer stuff, but I have kinda taken a liking to this one.

Marlin made XLR 1895 in 45-70. It just loves my powder coated 405's. I'm sure the ballard rifling and the 24" barrel helps.

I looked at Photobucket a while after they blocked all my pictures from being viewed. But at the time they wanted $400 a year to unlock the pictures. So I deleted all of my pics there and cancelled the account. Later they fired the President of the company as they lost a lot of customers and very few were signing up. Now their current plans tend to be somewhat more palatable, but I don't know if i want to pay $48.xx dollars a year for even the basic service. I still am unsure if they will allow the pics to be linked in other websites or not.

The photo is my Marlin 1895 GS in 45/70. Love this rifle.......

Suspect this will get me a weeks suspension for Gun Porn....but it will be worth it.

Rigby in 470 Nitro Express--it's sort of a factory rifle, just a very slooow factory.

Not the oldest, possibly the moldiest...

JP Sauer and Son's Stalking rifle in 360 BPE (and marked as such). Serial dates it to 1897. It has a decent but slightly dark bore, and shoots 190 grain bullets alright, but would probably be happier with the 150 grain HP's it was designed for. Has a 2 leaf express sight, but the ranges are unmarked, and with my heavier bullet don't quite correspond to any normal ranges...
