fmsniper Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 I got a n e-mail back from one of my friends that I built a 35 Whelen for from a VZ 24. Hi Jim how are you doing?? DV got back from Africa and said his gun you made performed very well!! (he only used 200gr)..he shot many animals,including big Kudos--which they say tasted very great! I think his longest shot was 150yds--whatever he hit he knocked over!! He said this African guide said your rifle was the nicest he had ever seen in all his years guiding! he will send pictures of the critters soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montea6b Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 Sniper, I was begining to wonder what you were up to. Good to hear from you, and glad that your handiwork is appreciated. So, have you been messing around with engraving over there in WestPac? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerrMesser Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 sniper That is a nice loking rifle. I'm also curious as to who made the stock? I need a nice stock for me 6mm Rem that I have a reworked military stock on. Rad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmsniper Posted July 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 Thanks guy's, no engraving yet still waiting to purchase the air engraver, cost $$$$. but I have tapes on it. The stock is a Boyds Dakota I hope he sends me photos of his kills, interesting that the 35 W did so well on Kudos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
