7x57R Bradshaw falling block - 08/27/19 03:57 PM
I finished this rifle back in 2010. One of my earlier falling block designs. All of the work was done by me except making the barrel itself.

Beautiful, its' nice to know there are still some true gunsmiths [artists] around.

And the right calibre, too. If only us older guys didn't need scopes, the rifle is perfect.

Bailey has also made some very fine knives in the past. I carry a knife he designed made by Browning for their Master Knifemakers series. He is a man of many talents...exceptional talents.

Pearl or Jigged bone?

This one is 99% finished. Amazing what a good polish will do. Fully functional and ready to barrel. It will wear a Brux barrel and be chambered for the 6.5x65R cartridge. Very comparable to the 6.5-06 but with a rim. It also has an incredibly beautiful stock blank of curly Turkish walnut selected.
I will make a video that goes through all of the features and operation in the next day or so.

The ones I have are all jigged bone.
