    where are Tuimans customs now? are there any left?

    Interested to see who still owns a tuiman custom, who held onto them?

    few years now and i don't see them coming up for sale and he did enough of them.

    where are all the cut up, carbon rigs now?

    He AI'd my 7mm08 T3 and reamed a couple of dies to suit about 5 years ago and I still have it....probably wont part with it any time soon.
    From memory it was a 2 week turn around and reasonably priced.

    Yep, he had a rifle of mine with a whole lot of new brass, aswell as the scope and mount. After a year of excuses, I asked for the rifle back. It came back with the torx screws stripped out and no brass. Cut my losses.

    That was a pretty good shooter. I can't recall any problems I had with it. IIRC I fitted a HS Precision DBM to it? The Senator stock was a bit average.
