RE: Designing your own dream gun?
I think it might be a Mauser 1909 action by Built up by Kelingunther, in '06 or .308. I would choose a 5A Circasian walnut stock with the European comb. I want a nicely figured fiddleback walnut grain with an ebony forend tip. Simple oil finish. I want a traditional leather butt pad. I prefer a nice high gloss blue. Butter kife bent bolt handle and winchester 3 position safety. Shaw or Shilen sporter weight barrel and free floated.
With warne or Talley scope rings and a Zeiss Diavari 30mm riflescope in 2.5x10x42. A nice leather sling and a nicely tooled Safari style, fleese lined leather case.
Or just a stock Sako TRG42 with Zeiss Diavari 6-20x56 scope.
Of course, as I finish this post, I am already second guessing myself!
