With all due respect to Shootaway, I just paid my deposit on (for me) the best double in the world. It's a Royal Grade H&H in .375 Flanged 2 1/2". I have a small's farm (100 acres) full of little South Georgia whitetails (and a few hogs) and I just figured that they needed the respect of London's finest.

It's still in Merry Ol' awaiting import permits, but I should have it well before Thanksgiving.

This is my second .375 Flanged Nitro Express 2.5". The first did it's duty well with plains game on a couple of safaris and maybe this one will take a few weeks off from the ardors of protecting my woods from vicious 100 lb. deer and go get a kudu or sable or something.

What do you think?

Very nice, Judge G. Do you have a date? Perhaps a photo of the barrel flats and water table?

Expect Graham Wright may have recorded a modern load for this deerslayer.

Regards, Tim

Damn nice. I am envious. Congrats.

My Cogswell & Harrison in the same caliber was regulated for 40 grains of cordite and a 270 grain bullet. Knyoch loads to duplicate that combination. I have a test target fired last Wednesday in England at W-R (from whom I'm buying the rifle). They used that ammo and it was just perfect.

Frank Beller has a .375 Nitro Express 2 1/2" (that I sold him, alas!) and he's sending me dies, etc. to fool with. Fun on a winter afternoon.

Ernest, what happened to keeping it a secret? :-)

Lovely enjoy ....
?about 3/8" cast off?

Judge, that is so awesome, congrats!

Ernest, congratulations on a beautiful rifle and also on your wee farm. Life looks pretty good for the Judge. Enjoy yourself and post some results from your Georgia safari.

Awesome double Judge. Cabelas in Ft. Worth had one very similar a year or so back. I lusted over that thing for a couple of months.

I hope it brings you many years of happiness.

That is beautiful. Congratulations.

Turn of the century? Bolted safety too.

That is a nice looking rifle.I especially like the last Searcy you bought.The H&H has it all though-chopper lump,fine stock,engraving...only problem is that it is old-if that is a problem for this particular rifle.

Exquisite! One beautiful rifle.

Wow !!!!!

Amazing.

Mike

Drool drool drool ha ha,congrats buddy!!!

Congrats brother!

Is this a brand new gun ?

Amazing.

Mike

Congratulations - do you know when it was built? H&H build a sweet rifle. I have a 450no2 H&H Royal that was built in 1906. It is as good today as the day it left the show room.....if they had a show room then.

Enjoy!

That IS a damn nice looking rifle!
Many get hung up on the "too bad it isn't a magnum" stuff but the 2-1/2" will do 90% of the magnum and is perfect for your purposes.
Even for an "old" gun...

That's certainly something to gawk over! Looking forward to seeing it in use in the future.

H&H Royal has always been my dream rifle..Congrats on one of the finest rifles ever made..IMHO

Wonderful.

My! Oh My! It takes my breath away. That is lovely!
Enjoy,
Bfly

Please note:
When Playboy prints photos of their stunning women, they post LOTS of photos. Not just three.
Let's see more!

Very nice choice for a Georgia "truck" gun!

Anything better than a HOLLAND Royal is pretty good.

Awesome rifle....

Judge! being that I've sent you a couple of clients, do I get to at least hold it? Seriously, BEAUTIFUL rifle!

Best to keep the muzzles pointed toward the foot of the bed. Less chance your Mrs. will catch anything on the front sight.

Beautiful rifle Judge!

Thing about a rifle like this is if the deer and pigs aren't cooperating you can have fun just admiring it.

Judge

Very nice.

Nitro

Where art and engineering meet.

Like Cal said, we need more info and more pics!

OUTSTANDING! Life is too short to shoot ugly guns.

Ernest, Congratulations, sir! She's a Beauty!

Really nice. Bring it to the Alaska Double Shoot next spring.

A perfect rifle no doubt, but is it enough gun for whitetails?

I also agree with Cal, we need lots more pictures......

Very nice Judge!

Beautiful and deadly. What more could you ask for?

A great looking double. Congrats on a fine rifle! I have to say that I am with Cal on this one. Three pictures are not nearly enough.

It doesn't get any better than this. The perfect H&H rifle in a caliber that's perfect for African plains game AND here at home.
