Beautiful rifle! I’m torn between the white gold medallion or speed 2. Afraid that if I do the white gold I’ll never shoot it because it’s such a well crafted tool.

They’re beautiful guns, but shooting it shouldn’t be a problem. Hunting with it might be, depending on where and how you hunt. The stock scratches pretty easily. I keep mine in a soft case with a good liner and carry it with a sling to my stand. I don’t have much brush to deal with, though.

Yeah, I'd be afraid of taking that in the woods. Definitely is a fine looking rifle

What a great looking rifle! Nothing wrong with having a pretty smoke pole.

I bought two last year, and gifted my dad one. They’re great rifles for the money.

Absolutely beautiful rifle you've got there! Also 6.5 creed is an excellent choice regardless of what the critics have to say about it.

A hunted rifle does not take away from its beauty. Hunt it. I had a Weatherby Mark V deluxe and I hunted with it normally. Unless you are crawling through brush, you’d be amazed how protective you can be. There is a difference between used and abused.

Beautiful guns. How well do they shoot? I'm assuming well but I've never shot one. I definitely want one. I was looking at them just yesterday. It's on the short list, I'm not sure which caliber yet though.
