Chuck Hawks history/present on Oregon Rifles

http://www.chuckhawks.com/plains_rifle.htm

An "anti-new super-bore", down to earth reviewer of tried and true favorite calibers for Oregon Big-game hunters.  My .308, the white-man sniper's choice in vietnam, will prove to be the most sporting due to it's decreased maximum point blank range (+/-3") (according to Hawks) if I decide to take advantage of the Starkey tag I just pulled.  But having fished with Toots on the reservation last week, he said the preferred caliber has always been the .264 Magnum for the Natives.  I might need to buy a new set-up instead of using my 1974 Pawn shop rig.  

I just remember seeing a commercial for what looked like an on-line gun auction.  Can't believe that someone could get away with that in this day, but i am going to check it out.  Americasauction.com or something.

Oh man look at this action (literally).  This thing could fit me like a glove.  (I wonder how this will end up blogging out)

Description

Seller's Description: NO RESERVE!! This is a FIRST CLASS Custom Rifle! Built on a DWM made Argentine Model 1909 Mauser action, this rifle chambers the speedy .264 Winchester Magnum. The heavy weight fluted stainless barrel measures just under 28" in length including the integral muzzle brake. The action has been plated to match the stainless barrel and give the rifle a very custom appearance. The stock is a green & brown laminated thumbhole design with beavertail forend, cheekpiece and adjustable buttplate. The rifle is further equipped with an aftermarket single stage trigger and modified safety to clear the scope. The rifle is topped with a silver Tasco 4-16x40 scope with adjustable objective and is steadied by an adjustable lightweight aluminum bipod up front. This is a really nice rig. The whole package is about mint with no evidence of use since it was built. My understanding is that the rifle was fired just enough to break it in. Due to a surplus of rifles in his collection, the owner has decided to let this one go. The mechanics are in perfect working order. The bore is as new, no signs of throat erosion or anything of that nature. The 1909 Mauser action is exceptionally strong and a popular platform for a custom rifle due to the factory hinged floorplate and quality of construction. This rifle would cost a fair sum to build from scratch. Buyer pays $25.00 shipping. SORRY, BUT I CANNOT END ANY AUCTION EARLYÖÖ PLEASE DON'T ASK!
