Which rifle do we crown as the best looking ever?

11 lbs for a .450-400?

At 12lbs scoped, this wouldn’t be the funnest gun to carry all day in the bush, but it would be the mildest recoiling dangerous game double ever made. With 15-3/8” LOP it would fit a giant man that hates recoil. (I’m one of those, but I don’t need such a gun at the moment)
 
The Lee enfild rifles are quite something pretty to me, and the Winchester 1895, and the rotary rounds. All of these rifles would be very nice to own

There may be no answer, just curious individual consensus.

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
