Hi,

Just wondering if anyone else on here owns a 333 Jeffery, either Double Rifle or Bolt Action ?

Don't often see them discussed.

I have a Boxlock Double in an old case and a Mauser 98 Bolt Action, both by Jeffery.

That must be quite a handy double. What's it weigh?

505G

I have always thought the 333 Jeffery would be a fun calibre to hunt with.

Just curious, what weight bullet was the double regulated for? Most of the ones I have seen were regulated for the 250gr bullet.

What weight bullet is the bolt rifle regulated for?

Strangely most of them seem to be set up for the 300gr bullet...

I used to!! Should have never sold it. GREAT Shooter and good for deer, elk and moose in the bush!! It was a Jeffery double...similar to my 450-400 3" that I should never have sold either!! Hindsight is 20/20!!
Cheers

I don't own one a but a friend of mine has one.
And I find it to be a sexy, super useful little rifle.

I'd love to have it for general North American hunting. I just don't have to spare 30K it would take to buy it.
