The action Husky/mauser,  Douglas I think, English Walnut,  3.5-10 VariX 3 Leupold.   162gr Hornady.   All metal work and wood by my Dad. Metal work, bases and rings, trigger bow and floorplate release, chambered and barrell taper.
Basically he starts with the action and does all the rest.  A true custom rifle.  Wood from a duplicater roughed out, inletted, bedded finished and checkered.   Wish I had some of his talents.

that is a handsome rifle.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Your dad is an artist with rifles, very nice looking piece of iron right there, and congrats to your Daughter on a great bull!
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Great bull. I'd say wide is an understatement.  :IBCOOL:
Very cool that she was able to take him with a rifle made by her grandfather, definately an added bonus   :)
