Anybody ever have a .360 2 1/4 DR??? Went to see an old Friend today that used to be a part owner of Purdy and a good friend of Peter Chapman's. He showed me the last DR he owned (although he has plenty of Purdy and Boss shotguns). It was a Boss .360 2 1/4 made for a maharaja of India. It was certainly a "best gun"!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J. Lane Easter, DVM A born Texan has instilled in his system a mind-set of no retreat or no surrender.

Great cartridge for deer, etc., like a .38-55. Black, nitro for black, and nitro loads were available.

I have a Westley Richards Drop lock in that calibre and a William Horton Boxlock 360 2 7/16th, a rare calibre but not too far from the 2 1/4". The Boss sounds nice. Previously 500N with many thousands of posts ! | |||

I have a double hammer rifle with Jones underlever, made in B'ham but sold in Cork, Ireland about 1870. Plus a single hammer gun made by Alex. Henry - it had a new barrel by them in 1882. Nice cartridge to load and shoot. | |||
