I must admit that a .500 Jeffery, built by W. J. Jeffery, at a pricepoint similar to the .416 Rigby Big Game from Rigby, would be a big success. Especially as Rigby currently does not do any +.45CAL rifles in their Big Game line, to my knowledge.

Hmmm, I think you have it in you to find a good working Army&Navy double rifle somewhere ;) No pressure ! Would just fit better with your PO :D

Thanks a lot for sharing and a well deserved Waidmannsheil @BeeMaa ! Love that second buffalo as well. But since the cats out of the bag now, which double rifle in what +45 caliber are you looking for? :)

Waidmannsheil on a tank of a Buffalo @BeeMaa ! And congrats on keeping your cool and seeing things through. Luckily there is a happy end for all involved. I’ve been in your shoes on a cape eland, the feeling of letting yourself and the whole team down is not fun at all. Looking forward to...

Not a solution, but likely the culprit (I have the same, even on rail optics) The human body is not a square box with right angles, nor is your shoulder. With some people this is more pronounced than others. This is why on a custom fitted gun or rifle, they will often cant the butt stock to...

My thoughts and prayers are with Charlie and his young family. Whenever elements in a society feel that words and discussions need to be answered with deadly force, is the time to purge those elements. I hope everyone involved with his murder will face the full force of Law. That includes all...

There is only one certainty in life: "Communism is bad for your health". The extreme left is the party of hate, as much as the extreme right is. Prayers for Charlie and his family.

I actually find that quad sticks are easier to setup yourself if you carry them, then when someone else tries to set them up for you. What I do: With strong side barrel up carrying of the rifle (right), my weak side hand (left) carries the sticks horizontally pointing forward. When coming up...

Wow, the progress is going well! I do think there needs to be an African fire pit in there somewhere ;)

This 9.3x74r is in Austria: https://www.gunfinder.de/listings/8877596?query=blaser%20S2

There have been multiple hearings on this topic lately, with camera's, radar, eye witness (pilot's) having all independently described objects that moved or acted seemingly without respecting our known laws of physics. Answers, no one has them (too much goofy conspiracy stuff), but we have...

My big stick, a 500NE made somewhere in the late 50'ies by a Belgian artisan on (likely) a Francotte action.

Hey! Don’t give all these Americans too many ideas of buying their double in Europe! Soon there will be nothing left for us poor peasants! :D

Judging from that picture, that seems very unlikely…

Depending on the target I can choose from: - 500NE double rifle - .416 Rigby bolt action rifle - .375H&H double rifle with spare 7x65r barrels - 7x64 bolt action rifle - 12b Joseph Lang Afrindia paradox
