No. Marc Jamison is the owner of Jamison International, peerless brassmaker, and all around nice guy. He is not related to Rick Jamison, as far as he knows, "unless it is somewhere back at Plymouth Rock that I don't know about," as he said to me when I asked him the same question.

As for me, my earliest "American" family member, besides that Cherokee in the wood pile, was Johan Berry, who made it to the east coast with Sir Walter Raleigh in 1578.

God save the Queen, off with the King's head, and all that rot, don't you know.

Now, back to this hot AFRICAN HUNTING topic.

Marty,
I'll be happy to loan you an action and a stock for you to make a prototype mauser (m48?) and I'll report on it's performance, right with the 470 AR!!!

Jeffe - I'll loan you the reamer and HS gauges, Mausers are not my strong suit and I would not do justice by the project. Besides, I owe you for the prototype brass.

Or maybe a bolt action double rifle

bolt action double rifle in .375 or 416 exists: it's the "Blaser duo"..

How is that .550 Flanged double rifle which you were building on a shotgun action project going?

That aught to be a great African stopping rifle.
