I apologize, I guess I wasn't humble enough by calling it sweet myself. Just happy that my first project turned out so well, and all done with hand tools and still shoots three shots under an inch at 100 yds, with 129 gr. Hornady spire points and about 40 grs. of imr 4064.

Very nice. I have a customized 96 that is the best shooter in my collection. Sub MOA all day. You should be proud of such a beautiful piece, nice work.
