First glance at my new 404J

[SkullKeeper]

Here are a few photos of the 404J build that my smith just finished timing the last screw on today. FN action, PacNor 24” barrel, NECG sights. I tried to keep it looking old school

Nice little Mauser/Rigby step in that barrel. How many does it hold?

Nice little Mauser/Rigby step in that barrel. How many does it hold?

I copied a FN barrel contour from a 1960 375HH that I owned briefly.
I will receive it next week but it should hold 3 down I’m thinking.

“Old School” … yes you did, a match look to an ole classic caliber equals well done! What are the details to the Stock - black walnut?

Side Note: I almost ‘locked horns’ on a .500 Jeff barrel/action only on a recent German Auction site - I was The Guy until inside 15-sec someone else became The Guy!! I fumbled w/ counter-offer & lost out/Ugg! Maybe a blessing consider the price per Round - but, I really wanted that project more to just have it! The 404J is the more practical caliber choice so the search continues!

Very nice, more important a great caliber.
