Cabellas has a hard case 63" long (on the outside) - too short for mine but your gun would be an easy fit. Have not see it in person so can't say about quality. They want $130 for it.

Check in on Dixie Gun Works. I know that they used to carry them.

Now try to find a permanent storage gun cabinet that that bugger will fit in. (at a reasonable price) Tis tuff to find one for anything over 4' tall. I am having a time finding one for my 3 band enfield.

I've now bought a few from Unique...outstanding quality soft / padded gun cases at really affordable prices...they refer to them as "musket cases"...available in various lengths.

I carry all of my expensive rifles while in transit inside a Pelican case. Water tight and have a pressure relief valve if you ever find yourself in an airplane. Had zero problems with them. They make em' in just about any configuration a person could want.

I made both of mine. For transporting in the truck I made a simple plywood case, with sheep skin covered blocks to hold mine and my oldest boys rifle. For general usage I used some heavy canvas that I had to make a soft case. Both cases were made from trimmings from other projects.So my cost was my time.
Check out the Kalispel gun cases. Welded aluminum seams, heavy duty latches, lockable. My 42 inch bbl. long rifles fit inside quite nicely. Top of the line cases....upper end on the price too but worth the $ when you consider that you have a couple of thou. worth of custom guns inside!!! cheers Paul

Try storing the gun muzzle down in a corner, or in a gun rack. Remove the lock and store that separately, secured. No one is going to steal a gun that has NO Lock on it.( per hundreds of interviews with burglars when I was an Assistant Public Defender).
