NICE ! What does the rifle look like with it in?
I do not know yet, It is a friend's rifle and I won't see him for a couple more weeks but I will take some pictures when the two pieces come together.
I can say this was out of a 1917 Enfield 30-06 that had belonged to his Great Grandfather and it had been fired with a plugged barrel which banana peeled the barrel.
My friend had the receiver tested and x-rayed then a talented gun smith in his area re barreled it in I think 7mm-08, Boyds laminated stock. It is a very good looking rifle but he thought it might be a little better with the bolt done.
I was wrong about the caliber it's a 7mm REM. Magnum
These are the best pics I could get with it in the rifle

That is a nice looking stock. Doesn't look "laminated" rather good looking wood, though.
Yea he has so many guns I get them confused sometimes
