I wanted something custom, a good shooter but wanted some eye candy, mainly for me. I'm not one to brandish and show off but wanted something I could just look at, plop up on the bench at the range, fling a few rounds down and sit back and stare at the rifle.

After a bunch of questions and decisions I have the design planned out. I've spoken with a top notch painter who is going to do all of the painting and detail work. Stock has been chosen, SSS LPBR stock. I had one final question for them over there before I pulled the trigger on the order. If they can come thru with this request I will be ordering the stock.

So far I have a Savage 10 FCP-SR, still waiting for delivery on the rifle however. I have picked up a SSS fluted bolt and extractor kit. I bought a Shilen 28", bull barrel, 1-10 twist with 6 grooves from Northland. Bought a Pacific Tool bolt head, probably not really needed but I'm going 100% crazy on this rifle. Looking at a CDI or AI bottom metal but still on the fence about which one at the moment.

Plans are to highly polish the stainless barrel, have the action bead blasted and then have something done to it. Not sure how I will achieve the look I am going for on the action but I do have time. As far as paint, details on the stock at the moment this is all top secret. The bottom metal and mag will also have some color added to accent the theme.

Right now I do not have pictures but wanted to start this thread. Once I have the rifle in hand and stock ordered the ball will be rolling....slowly. Once I get some things accomplished I will get the pictures posted to document this build.

When it is all said and done however I think this will be a head turner for certain.
