Beautiful rifle! What is the address and contract number on the barrel? What force or guile could not subdue, Thro' many warlike ages, Is wrought now by a coward few, For hireling traitor's wages. | |||

Beautiful rifle! "It didn't matter that .375 H&H solids broke up far more readily than the 9.3’s, or that the .375 produced greater meat damage with no improvement in effectiveness, and all this with a significant increase in recoil." Don Heath On the local recoil run off, any votes for the 9.3 being a better runner? | |||

I shot a lot of buffalo with the .375 while testing the 350 gr. RN and power point for Geoff at Woodleighs..He did the RN at my request but told me the PP would be better and the same length..Of course he was right, but I still like the look of the RN!! its nostalgic and it sure works and better in herd shooting as it had less penetration and more expansion than the PP, but the PP had both expansion and penetration and is the better of the two..I got the impression the 350s made the 375 the full equal of the .416 Rem with its 400 gr. bullet. The 350 PP had more penetration than any soft I had ever tried and it killed quickly in every case, and awesome bullet they are, both of them.

Anybody notice this thread had been dead for 7 1/2 years, then another 5 months. Yes it's cocked, and it has bullets too!!! | |||

I saw that and wondered why anyone would bother to dredge up a post from 8 years ago. Vote Trump- Putin’s best friend… To quote a former AND CURRENT Trumpiteer - DUMP TRUMP | |||

The fact that Harry Selby posted on it was reason enough to resurrect the thread,imo. Wish I would have had an opportunity to correspond or converse with him. | |||

I feel fortunate to have emailed with him over the final years of his life. I’ve kept them all, including his Christmas wishes. ______________________ DRSS ______________________ Hunt Reports 2015 His & Her Leopards with Derek Littleton of Luwire Safaris - http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/2971090112 2015 Trophy Bull Elephant with CMS http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/1651069012 DIY Brooks Range Sheep Hunt 2013 - http://forums.accuratereloadin...901038191#9901038191 Zambia June/July 2012 with Andrew Baldry - Royal Kafue http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7971064771 Zambia Sept 2010- Muchinga Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4211096141 Namibia Sept 2010 - ARUB Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6781076141 | |||

And that’s a fine looking rifle Jim. Anyone that would prefer the looks of a Blaser over those classic lines is just not right in the head. | |||

We have had many phone calls together with Harry. In fact, he sent me a transcript of a book he was writing. A true gentleman of the old school. Nothing like some of the ones we see masquerading as "professional hunters" today! | |||

He was not finished with it at that time, and I have no idea what came of it eventually. | |||

On a thread in American Hunting Forum about when do you start to sell off your guns I mentioned this beauty mostly just sits in the safe now. Brought this thread back to life. 2008 original post. Hard to believe it was that long ago. Fun to reread it. Especially with the Harry Selby posts. ______________________ DRSS ______________________ Hunt Reports 2015 His & Her Leopards with Derek Littleton of Luwire Safaris - http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/2971090112 2015 Trophy Bull Elephant with CMS http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/1651069012 DIY Brooks Range Sheep Hunt 2013 - http://forums.accuratereloadin...901038191#9901038191 Zambia June/July 2012 with Andrew Baldry - Royal Kafue http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7971064771 Zambia Sept 2010- Muchinga Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4211096141 Namibia Sept 2010 - ARUB Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6781076141 | |||
