Your stock looks/works great! You build an awesome stock. Couldn’t be a happier customer…put me down as a referral for future customers. – T. Vaught
Here are some pictures of my javelina hunt. I just love my rifle. The light weight of the stock really made a difference for me. It also proved a major asset when carry up and down hills all day. Besides that it’s pretty!! Thanks Again, Candis
Hi Guys, You built a rifle stock from the Rogue model around my Steyr M-III professional about 3 years ago and I just wanted to let you know how much I LOVE it. The inletting / fit is just about as perfect as someone could ask for. It’s one of my primary hunting rifles but at the range, it is the most stable stock I have. I shot a 200yd 3 round group that was fit inside a nickel ! That’s STRONG! Thanks again - S. Parker
This is a Remington 700 titanium with a Rock Creek cut rifled barrel, carbon wrapped by Advanced Barrel systems. It has a Lone Wolf carbon composite stock, Leupold vx-III scope, Tally one peice alluminum mounts and chambered in 6.5-284 WIN. The rifle weighs 5 lbs without the scope. These are some test groups shot at 100 with a 10mph cross wind. Loads were 140 gr Seirra Game Kings pushed by 46 gr H4831sc. Rifle built by Bettin Custom Guns for L. Barton Greenwood, AR.
The .338 Lapua at the range today! Best 3 shot, 300 yard group to date: 285″ with the Sierra 300 grain Match King. I couldn’t put the gun away fast enough. I knew better than to shoot the 4th shot! Dave

Just a note to let you know that the stock is a work of art! You should sign them. Really! I put 50 rounds through it yesterday, and it was settling in better with each successive shot. Recoil is very mild, thanks to the stock, the compensator, and maybe the moly coat on the 200gr Sierra hpbt. Everyone who sees it admires the “perfect” stock. Still would like a personalized brochure to frame. I’ll put it in the shop where it will be seen. The touchup paint is appreciated as well.
Regards and thank you for your consideration:

Bob,
Just a quick note to say hello and share some photos of my recent hunt in Zimbabwe where the rifle you stocked for me accounted for 6 animals. It remains one of my favorite rifles and I received many positive comments regarding the stock from PHs and other clients alike. Hope all is well with you.
Regards,

Shiras moose, 45″ taken on the West Fork of the Madison River in 2007.
Custom rifle used was .325 WSM with a fine stock that fit perfectly for a one shot kill.
I thought you might like to see my hunting pictures; I had a really good year.
If you notice the dates on the pictures I shot all three of these animals within a month.
I was gone allot and my wife was pissed but here is the result.
Any way thank you very much for all your help Bob, I’m looking forward to this project.
Factoring in the weight of the rifle (out of the box) 7lb 5oz minus the existing stock 2lb 1oz then adding 12oz for your stock and assuming I can get 8oz out of the bolt I can get this rifle down to 5lb 4oz + scope = 6 1/4lb WOW
Thanks again

Bob,
Thought you might like to know that the “Howler” on the Browning works ok. I got a “meat” buck early with it and the attached picture is of my son and the “little” forkie he got with it. I may not be able to pry it out his hands now. I really like the way it shoots and handles, the safety is no problem. Thanks again, and give the pooches and scratch for me.

I just wanted you to know how pleased I am with both of the rifles you made for me last year. Its strange in the fact the 300 win mag was made to shoot 180 gr bullets and it does not shoot them very well [ 1.25 ''] but it shoots 165 grains great and 200 grains great and that is even better for what I want to do with that rifle. I shot a 173 B&C South Dakota whitetail with it last fall. A great deer. Next month i am on my way to China to hunt Blue Sheep with the 7mm wsm.

I just wanted you to see what the new 300 did it appears this buck will make book he scored green 180 2/8 a South Dakota buck. I have put these lone wolf rifles thru a hard season.

Bob,
I just wanted to send you some pictures of the moose I got in Sep with the rifle you built for me. I have to tell you that everyone that saw the rifle was very impressed. I took this moose with one shot but as you can see it took a few steps in the lake before calling it quits.
The rifle is very flat shooting and the recoil feels like a .243 I wanted to thank you for building me such a great rifle and look forward to perhaps having you build me a bolt action for a Africa hunt in the next couple of years.
If you can use these pictures for any reason, by all means please do. I wanted to share with you the awards of using a great gun.
Aloha,

Bob,
I recieved the rifle and it looks super. I had a chance to do the break-in and i hope this weekend to give it a good test. Attached is a copy of the big horn, I shot him on the second day he missed book by 2 points. I was sick and am still sick about that.
My guide was sick. It just happened. The 7mmwsm has had a good fall. One shot on the bighorn at 409 yards.
