Beautiful rifle, Matt! You're going to enjoy that rifle every time you look at it and shoot it! I really like the squiggly lines, it's something you don't see every day. Well done!

Thanks Jim, Jon. Im just getting brass fire-formed in it now. Only thing with the squiggly lines, if you use a patch to oil the barrel it leaves lil fuzzys, so a micro fiber towel is needed. I did throw a couple loads together and 86gr seems to be a good start.

Those ‘squiggly’ lines are one the most useful and just adds something desirable on any rifle choice available. I am impressed that Shiloh does it, old world craftsmanship is still a welcome addition.
