470 Nitro Express Components For Sale

Actually they were a gift from my wife. Years ago she bought me a leather ammo wallet with "470 Nitro Express" on it. She ordered these to go in it.
 
My mistake, I didn't realize that someone had posted a question. Yes, the Westley Richards are factory loaded rounds (x5).

Thank you for the reply sir!
 
Selling gifts from your wife is a very BAD idea, unless she’s no longer around then it’s brilliant[emoji56]
 
She's ok with it. She's a very good girl that way. Once I find a Gibbs, she'll probably buy me another. Top of the line, that one is.
 
Hope u r a big stout nugget, cause the Gibbs is a monster on both ends— make sure it fits well and should be ok

I thought recoil was "all in your head";)

Kidding aside, since i was very young, ive not owned too many long guns that didn't kick like a young mule. The 500 A-Square still stands out in my mind, as did the 550gr buffalo bullets in the Farmingdale 50-140 Sharps with the crescent steel buttplate. That one just hurt a lot. None of them though, come anywhere close to the 10lb Ruger #1 shooting a 750gr A-Max in the 50-140 Sharps. Not sure that I have a way to describe that one in English words.

Very much looking forward to finding a Gibbs though.

So, is there no one willing to trade the entire lot for 10 pieces of 505 Gibbs brass? I would have thought the box of 5 factory loaded Westley Richards would be worth that.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
