Well, I got the rifle in hand today - what a remarkable Custom Rifle. Bill Sturtevant is truly a Master Gunsmith. Every aspect of this rifle is absolutely perfect. Everything was made from scratch - action, bolt, and stock. I tried to show all the detail in the pictures below. The custom action is variation of a double square bridge. The tops of the bridges are machined to accept the 30mm Leopold Rings - no bases required. The custom bolt has enlarged locking lugs and a sleek custom shroud with a Winchester style 3-position safety. Stock inletting is perfect and border-less checkering is flawless. L.O.P is 14-3/8" and weight is a recoil absorbing 11 pounds 12 ounces.

As far as I've been able to find - this is the ONLY Sturtevant Arms Bolt Action Rifle ever made. Serial number is SS-001.

The only other Sturtevant rifle found is a Custom .375 H&H Flanged Caliber Dangerous Game Rifle built as a traditional Farquarson action single shot, currently for sale on Guns International.
