Very nice! I like long barreled Remington RBs. Lucky find on the buttstock. It looks like a good match to the rest of the rifle. Do you have a picture showing the whole buttstock on the rifle?

Turned out very nice.  Are you going to shoot out to 1,000 with it?

That's really cool!   

I don't suppose that there are any markings on the barrel under the forearm to indicate who re-rifled it?

As much as I hated parting with those stocks, there's no better place for them than on that Longrange Creedmoor rifle Lynn! They look perfect, and belonged with an original Creedmoor rifle.

The gun sure is a good looker! It's what I hope to someday find myself! Maybe this year in Denver I'll find one too! I see them every year, but never the right gun at the right price.

On my Hepburns,  the E. Remington & Son barrels are 5 groove  and the Remington Arms  barrels are 6.

Lynn, 
Are you planning on shooting your Roller at one of the LR matches at Harris this year?  I wan't to shoot my Borchardt and have it up and running by the August match but I need to fit a new rear sight with windage.  Now days, they frown on you when looking down the muzzle and making changes.
