They often “shorthanded” some descriptions. I have the entire build sheet for one of my Gibbs Farquharsons and the charge for every smith that laid hands on it. I still haven’t deciphered the entire thing.

I have some new and fired I'd sell or trade. Shoot me a DM and we can discuss.

I'll take them! PM sent

333 Mauser 24 inch Steel Barrel Standard and 4 Flush leaves to 500yds Ivory Bead sight Short Checkered 4part and Pistol Grip eyes for sling trap in Butt Short Rib 4 Shot Mag. The only part I'm not sure of is the "short rib" part as yours doesn't have a rib unless that is referring to the lever...

Says "Standard action" on the 416. Surely a typo, correct?

I've heard the phrase "come boiling through the bush" This^^ is exactly what that means!!

Just lovely. Beautiful work!

I reloaded some for a friend - 95gr H4831 with 500gr softs regulated in his double. Took a nice lion with that load.
