One of my customers turned me loose on his rifle. This was a blast to build and I am forever grateful for the opportunity to have free reign. This rifle is chambered in 30-40 krag, hand loaded to hot .308 win velocities. It’s headed to Manitoba for black bear in March.

That is the finest single shot I believe I have ever seen! Terrific work Bailey!
 
Stunning rifle. The carving on both the wood and metal is beyond first class.
 
4 days at DSC in a booth immediately next to Bailey...now you guys know why I am having him build my next rifle.

Not too many opportunities to get an entire rifle made by one Craftsman.

Beautiful work Bailey…

The prototype rifle you had at your booth really speaks to me… I think that one is going to be a masterpiece once it’s completed!
 
That looks like a one off European rifle, that they make every several years, putting every once of skill into that one rifle. Like the Rigby elephant skin rifle. The Franzoj Dragon rifle and others.

Simply amazing craftsmanship

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ
