Looking for pictures - Brit style 375 with short barrel Login/Join

Do you have any pictures of a British or "classic" style rifle with a 20"-22"" barrel? Interested in medium to heavy bore .338 Mag, 358 Norma, .375 H&H, perhaps .416 Rem or similar caliber. Not looking for a full Mannlicher style stock but a "short rifle" with a wood stock. Not looking for a rifle built on a huge, true magnum action.

I'm looking for ideas.

Thanks.

I have not seen many short barrel rifles as you are seeking, but this one is about as British as you can get. My Cogswell .375 H&H mag takedown. Griffin and Howe side mount, scope, cased in oak and leather. I don't like single barrel rifles. If you buy this one, I will include a free hack saw for the barrel issue (currently 26"). Letter from C&H, made 1926.
Cheers,
Cal

Sweet rifle Cal.
Would you consider selling it without the hacksaw?

Yes, I would. PM me your phone number if you wish.
Bore is excellent, groups better than I can shoot. Classic English lines.
Cal
