I have a 375 H&H along with a 458 Lott. Both are Winchester Model 70. I need some recommendations of good gunsmiths that can make these safari ready. I live in Texas, but not sure if any of the smiths have a lot of experience with safari rifles. Also, what should I have checked and corrected on these guns? Any help would be appreciated. | ||

Hill Country Rifles is the only smith I'm aware of that does good work on big bores in my area of Texas. By no means do I mean they're the only one. http://www.hillcountryrifles.com is their website. --->Happiness is nothing but health and a poor memory<---Albert Schweitzer --->All I ever wanted was to be somebody; I guess I should have been more specific<---Lily Tomlin | |||

Dennis Olson of Plains MT. He just finished my .375 and I am very pleased with it. I am at work right now so I don't have his address but his phone # is 406-826-3790 ****************************** There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor polite, nor popular -- but one must ask, "Is it right?"

I got my .375 a week & 1/2 ago. The turn around time was only about 5 weeks. I had him use a Douglas barrel. If I would of went Lilja it would of been about another 8 weeks. He does good work and his prices are reasonable. He said he has done a lot of work for you. ****************************** There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor polite, nor popular -- but one must ask, "Is it right?"

I hear you. I wanted Fred Zeglin to do one for me but I heard it takes him a year to get it back to you. He must really be swamped. ****************************** There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor polite, nor popular -- but one must ask, "Is it right?"
