This fine custom rifle has the correct bolt peep sight and longer barrel for the scarce 218 Bee caliber. The rear sight slot on the barrel has been filled with a blank. The stock is an exceptional piece of Circassian walnut, installed and fitted by a master craftsman. The extra fine checkering (22 LPI) is done on an elaborate multi-panel scheme with four panels on each side of the grip, seven panels on the forearm. The sling eye on the bottom of the stock was installed on a raised boss carved into the wood. The eye at the front is on the bottom of the barrel. The buttplate is a smooth steel.
