My New 450 Dakota

Thanks for sharing my excitement, even though she’s been “broken in” by Cody. :(

Wayne puts out some dandy rifles and I am glad to be renting this one for a spell.
 
Beautiful rifle. Some of the most gorgeous wood I believe I have ever seen!
 
Beautiful, but not too pretty to hunt with :)

I hunt with my CZ 550 in 500 Jeffery Wayne worked on (not an AHR rifle though and not as pretty as yours)

You haven’t seen Cody’s 470? Makes this rifle almost look plain! The other side is even better!

Great looking rifle Tim!
 
Thing of beauty. Too pretty to hunt with.

Definitely want to take it hunting.

My initial range trip is making me think this rifle could possibly find its way to Zim in August.

Hmmm....450/400 with a 300gr TSX at ~2,500 as a PG combo? Then the 450 Dakota for Buffalo!

I'm glad you're willing to admit this is a rental. That's the first step in a 12 step program.

Spoken like a man in search of his 3-month chip.

Beauty of a rifle you have there.
Love the wood.
 
What a beautiful rifle. Hate to drag that through a Barb wire fence.
 
Gorgeous rifle!
 
Nice rifle! Really like the wood, hope it shoots as good as it looks.

For the record - No rifle is to pretty to not take to the field! Stocks can be refinished, metal work can be brought back to new... But each new scratch or dent tells a story of time in the bush and every rifle deserves a chance to tell a story.
 
Congrats Tim, it’s stunningly beautiful!
 
You do know that you're going to MAKE me buy the 450 Rigby I've been eyeballing, right?
I'll be happy to take the blame.
You've seen nothing like the wrath that my Department of Finance dishes out.

I'm still breathing, but just barely sometimes.

Enjoyed reading your post again. Believe this is the 3rd time. I am scheduled to hunt w/ Legadema in Sep. Really looking forward to it.
