CZ550FS

Great looking rifles. I love the full length stock. I brought a full length stock rifle both times I went to Africa, a Mannlicher-Shoenauer in .270 and a 416 Rigby.

Are you saying you have a full length stock/stutzen 416 Rigby? Do you have any pictures of it? Or were you only talking about the M-S in 270?

I feel like the largest bore full stock rifles I ever see floating around are 375 H&H. Would be cool to see more .40+ calibers with full length stocks, though for the sake of maintaining velocity I know longer barrels are preferred on the bigger bores. I have a full stock/stutzen in 9.3x62; a full stock 416, 458, or 500/505 would be a dream.

Here’s my full stock 416. Only one I’ve ever seen

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
