Bolliger has refined the art of custom rifle making to its highest form over the last 40 years. Many makers can decorate a rifle that looks good, but the true art is creating a masterpiece that is equal parts form and function. As famously uttered by the noted rifleman and hunter Colonel Townsend Whelen, “only accurate rifles are interesting”, John Bolliger has dedicated his life to building accurate rifles with innovative features that improve the usefulness of his rifles. (CHECK OUT THE TARGETS SHOT BY THIS RIFLE IN THE PHOTOGRAPHS TO SEE THE DEFINITION OF ACCURACY!) At the same time Bolliger is building rifles that are visually stunning in the beauty of the wood, execution of the checkering, and the impeccable fit and finish throughout. Bolliger only chooses wood that is properly aged, stable, and possessing various levels of figure.

This rifle, sn145384 built on a pre-64 Winchester Model 70 action in 2006, is loaded with upgrades and if you were to order today would exceed $32,000 and take years for delivery.
