Does anyone have any bullets for the .475 #2 Eley that they could part with? Thank you,
Steve
 
From Hawk's website:

.475 #2 Nitro-Express (.482)​

Round Nose
400 grains x .035 RN$65.50
400 grains x .050 RN$74.00
500 grains x .035 RN$70.00
500 grains x .050 RN$80.00
500 grains x .065 RN$132.50
 
Well this goes to prove importance of slugging the bore vs relying on my memory, the rifle turns out to be .475 #2 Jeffery and requires a .488" bullet. I had a small supply and am aware of Hawk but any NOS Kynoch, Barnes are Woodleigh would be desirable. Thank you
 
I appreciate the info. I'm not comfortable with mono-metal bullets in old doubles myself, I know some people are. I am still looking for some good bullets to feed this old gal.

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
