Sorry it's 3+1. Just realized what I typed. I just went through the email transcript I had with Corlanes back in 2015. All the "smith" had to do really was to open up the barrel channel, make a couple of extractor cuts, put on a different set of sights that I wanted, and install a barrel band for the sling, install the new barrel.

I had Jim Kobe here in Minnesota do my 404. I used a 375 Win Mod 70 as a donor and a Cabelas 50th Aniv Edition Stock ( E-bay Purch) and Dougles supplied the Barrel etc.
Jim did what he needed to do and the result is great looking, fantastic shooting Rifle that I haven't had to spend a Fortune building

Hello,
Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.
Thank you for your time,
Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
