Loved it....great concept to bring the round body look to double rifles. Handled well for me, and priced right. No pix at this time, unless someone took one at the show. Not on the VC website yet. | |||

Ken told me about these on the phone last night but has been surprisingly stingy with photos.  Probably a good thing as I am running out of drool rags...

I think Ken said that he had forwarded the rifle on to the SCI show already. I forget about the lock-up...I thought someone mentioned 6 locking lugs? | |||

I loved this new round action double so much I've placed my order for one in .500 10.5lbs finish weight, colour case hardened, matt-black finish to the barrels, ejectors and short 23.5" tubes should make a perfect companion/back-up rifle on my early season buffalo hunts in Arnhemland. 6 - 10 months of nail-biting waiting time ! | |||

What's the largest bore that this new round action will be available in? NRA Lifer; DSC Lifer; SCI member; DRSS; AR member since November 9 2003 Don't Save the best for last, the smile for later or the "Thanks" for tomorow | |||

Officially 500 NE, unofficially 577. The Verney rep seemed to think it wouldn't be a problem. | |||

I received the two round body guns I had at Dallas two days before I needed to ship them to the show and did not have time to photo them. They are now on the way to SCI, I will not have them back here until after SCI. I had a French grey 450 and a case colored 500, in process I have a 470 and 450-400. Both the 577 and 600 will also be available in the round body action. The lock up is the same as the other actions, only the exterior shape is different.

What is the starting price on the Ph's? DRSS | |||

The casecolored 500 NE at the show was $13,500. Not sure what options were on it, if any. | |||

The ones at the show were a 450 with coin finish, with options, day/night front sight, shadowline cheekpiece, sling swivels (ejectors std) $13,500, the case colored 500 had the same options and was $13,800 Ken DRSS, PP Chapter Life NRA Life SCI Life DSC | |||

Well, I do "need" a 450/400 and this just might be the answer... Will I be able to get my bespoke 240 NE in round body action? Reamers and chamber gauges are just a few weeks from delivery ...

Yes, I think Kool-Aid is now relegated to first-time DR buyers!!! Stronger stuff is required for the veterans. | |||

Hey you two... I put the blame squarely on your shoulders - Mr. Biebs and Mr DoubleDon - for introducing me to this addiction NRA Lifer; DSC Lifer; SCI member; DRSS; AR member since November 9 2003 Don't Save the best for last, the smile for later or the "Thanks" for tomorow | |||

It's like knowing that what's inside the box is what you asked for but having to wait until Christmas to take off the wrapping ...  NRA Lifer; DSC Lifer; SCI member; DRSS; AR member since November 9 2003 Don't Save the best for last, the smile for later or the "Thanks" for tomorow | |||
