Here is what we have coming out so far this week. There are a couple stragglers I don't have pics of yet but getting there. 6.5 Creed available 6.5 Creed available 300 Win mag available 7 mag sold (should be killing bear in canada in 2 days) Little custom work on a 300 Rum factory rifle matched his company colors in the flutes as well and in the bolt. 6.5 Tika rebarrel (sold) 6.5 LH Creed Available. (tried a new pearl coating system, going to repaint it or restock it. My wife says she is not loving it in this stock, and she typically keeps me inline . Its super unique. You base a color and the green goes on white as it bakes it turns green. In the light the gun still looks more flat black. under the light it looks green. We have it in Blue and they make it in red too. Under the right situation this could make some sweet stuff in the future. And this one is missing the trigger has not arrived yet. Its not done but I had to share the new paint, excited about the potential.

It doesn't look bad to me and sounds neat.

Nice rigs!
Horizon, do you do custom stock painting by chance? I'm in nearby Brenham and am currently building a rifle with a Brown "Pound'r" lightweight Kevlar stock, and I want some kind of cool camo pattern on it. I haven't decided between a painted finish or film dipped camo yet, but leaning toward a painted finish. Applying professional-looking paint jobs to anything is not among my strengths.

PM me, we do some depending on what you want ect. I will say I have sent some stocks out to Aquaprint lately and have been pretty happy with their dipping work. There is a local guy to us here in CS that is doing dipping. Saw him at a local show and his stuff was really nice. Does a single dip so only one seem which i like a lot better
