Not in hand yet, but on its way from Accurate Innovations. Wes sent me some pictures yesterday. I picked up this SC production 375 H&H Safari Express a few years ago and hadn't done much with it. Decided to spruce it up with a nice stick of English. Found something on the AI web site that tickled my fancy and gave Wes a call. Checkering pattern is a custom one to match my 404J and the cross bolts are, of course, faux, but I think it completes the look.

:Facepalm:Well, I posted this in the wrong forum and can't see that I can move it. Could one of the moderators move it to the 375 and up forum please?
 
Looks great, AI does a great job from what I've been hearing.
 
Beauty! No one easier to work with than Wes.
 
That sir is a nice looking rifle. Out of curiosity, why "faux" cross bolts?
 
why "faux" cross bolts?
The AI stocks use an aluminum bedding block so there is no need for actual cross bolts. I suppose you could put them in, but it would be two belts and three pair of suspenders.
 
Thanks, agreed. You can't tell a book by its' cover.

Is this wood you supplied or some they sold you!
 
Congrats on your "new" rifle, looks outstanding.

Accurate Innovations does some incredible work.
I have three rifles currently that have A.I stocks on them and I love them.

Lots of people look at me sideways when I tell them my .500 MDM weighs only 8.5lbs, as does my .458 Lott, but as they are both stocked in A.I stocks that fit me to a tee both rifles are pleasantly manageable to shoot AND carry.
 
Lovely stick of wood that has made into a beautiful rifle.

I would be interested in it if you pass. Please send me the info on the gun shop if you do not buy it. I have the needed ammo and brass.
Thanks,
