just thought if anyone is interested in having the bolt jeweled on their rifle you should contact Baldwin Bolt Jeweling at 989-843-8954. I called him last Monday and asked if it was ok to send him the bolt, extractor and follower. he polished the items then did a deluxe jeweling job on them, they came great and charged me 95.00 including return shipping, the great part was it was back to me in one week from the day I shipped them. I have a few more I think I will send him great work
 
This is one of those projects that I always want to try my hand at, and then I realize the price a gunsmith charges and second guess if the investment in tools is worth it.

Glad you’re happy with the work you got done!

Would love to see a picture of his work on your bolt.
I will post up a picture later today, I also noticed that it even feels smoother when loading and cycling the bolt, he even did a nice blue job on the edges of the follower

Cool, thanks. Which jeweling pattern did you choose?
 
I,ve used Skip a 1/2 a dozen times and his work is outstanding, last one he did for me was my Whitworth 375, which I posted on AH. BTW have him do the follower also

Good morning from Montana.

I'm looking at a post from 2018 where you were looking for a lefty Winchester in .375 H&H Magnum. I'm selling mine. My email is [redacted] in the event that you're still searching for a unicorn.

Best,

Kelly Palmer
Gents, if you book and pay your deposit before the end of this year , you can have the bigger cull package for the 2026 price! https://www.africahunting.com/threa...griffiths-safaris-starting-at-us-2-560.96285/
I am currently in Northern Cape scouting a hunting area, we will have lots of amazing hunting opportunities for 2027! I will post updated available dates soon!

Good Evening. I am very interested in you hunt for the spiral slam. March in 2028 would be fine for me

Couple of quick questions:

1) Can we add some additional species on
2) what do you want for a deposit?
3) how do you want me to sign up

I'm on whats app or email

Kurt [redacted]

have a great evening
