[QUOTE="db-2, post: 402823, member: 4743"] Know nothing about all these new rifles and all this custom work but have my long gun, 1000 yards coming, a model 1 Ruger in 300 Weatherby. All built by Americans, no/yes. Now to find a buffalo at 1000 yards. My dad, back in the fifties took an American Enfield 30-06, cut the barrel down and modify the rear site with a hand grinder (site guards), put a peep site on, bought a carved stock for it (running whitetails). I did help with the work. Was an order mail gun, less than $30 (i believe maybe $19) and i am sure no paperwork. Would that be a custom-made rifle from that time? Came solid grease, gave it to my brother who then hunted with it. db [/QUOTE]
