For those of you that remember the PH Model then you'll know what the Field Grade will look like minus the engraving. Next week sometime I will have a new page on the web site with picture and complete specifications on the new Field Grade. No other calibers will be available other than what's listed. | |||

This is great news. Will we be able to get talley scope mounts for this model? I sure hope so. I guess I need to sell some bolt guns now. | |||

Butch has more new offerings than any other double maker. It's nice to see an affordable double out there, while prices of European doubles have gone quite high in part due to our weak dollar. | |||

Butch, great idea, a lot of guys are going to be able to own a nice double rifle, great bang for the buck. Dirk "An individual with experience is never at the mercies of an individual with an argument" | |||

Dan, I disagree with the first part of this statement. As far as FX is concerned the Euro has been experiencing a real growth in strength, and not just at the expense of the weakening dollar but due to other financial factors. Lucky US, we're getting it in both ends.  | |||

Ha! I told you guys so about a month ago..I have friends in low places and a snitch in Butch's shop!!! I have probably just started a full scale invetigation into the employees of Butch's shop, he is pulling out his hair trying to cypher out who the villian is, but I will go to my grave in silence!

Hi guys: I see Butch has the pricing up on his web site for the field grade but no pictures yet. Now the $50k question is, if I add a little bit of engraving to the filed grade will it be cheaper than buying a Classic? Yeah Ray you called this one a while back, you snitch.... LOL Regards...

What a great choice of calibers. A .450NE would be sweet. | |||
|
| One of Us |
Another question is would you like extractors? | |||
|
one of us |
I'd vote for both, now that 450 brass is coming from Hornady (Jamison). Ejectors would be nice also. ------------------------------- Will Stewart / Once you've been amongst them, there is no such thing as too much gun. --------------------------------------- and, God Bless John Wayne.

Hornerber of Germany also make .450NE Cases. I suspect this will be the next IN caliber for doubles. This new Searcy rifle will help with that. | |||
|
| one of us |
I can't imagine a better caliber than the 450-3.25, it is hard to beat for anything that walks, talks, breaths, swims, or crawls but not very good on flying stuff! Ray Atkinson Atkinson Hunting Adventures 10 Ward Lane, Filer, Idaho, 83328 208-731-4120 rayatkinsonhunting@gmail.com | |||

I agree, I have a 450 NE in the PH model that I picked up last year in Boron. I have put over 150 rounds through it and it is accurate and easy to reload. Looking forward to it felling an elephant in the Caprivi next August with Vaughn Fulton. Butch makes rifles that fit and a pleasure to shoot. I can't say enough about his integrity and quality of what he produces. | |||

Butch, How long until Heym offers it's new rifle called the field grade for slightly more than yours? It took them about a year to come out with a PH model after your PH model came out.  | |||

By popular demand I will offer ejectors as an option to the Field Grade. I'm just an old softy. | |||

Mr. Searcy: My apologies if you've already addressed this question and I missed your response. Would you consider doing a lighter weight version of this rifle in a rimmed caliber like 8x57E, 7x65R, or 7x57R or one of the U.S. calibers like the .30-40 Krag? I'm thinking something that would be a deer/elk rifle and weigh about 7-3/4 to 8 pounds with a Leupold 1.5-5x or similar scope. Thanks. | |||

Stuey, I'm still taking orders for the first 10 to be delivered in April 09. I just had a call from a gentleman that told me he was 67, and here I thought Ray was the only one older than me. Anyhow I will offer Talley scope system on the Field Grade. I do see this as a necessary option for those of us that wear tri-focal's. Right now the only calibers listed on the web site will be made. The next cartridge that will be added later will be the 9.3X74 R. http://www.searcyent.com/field_grade1.htm | |||

Butch, How much will the scope system and ejector options cost? Thanks!! -Steve --------  www.zonedar.com If you can't be a good example, be a horrible warning DRSS C&H 475 NE -------- | |||

Opps! Found the ejectors listed on the web link ($2000). Didn't look at the bottom of the page as it still say 'no upgrades' and I thought it hadn't been updated. Didn't see the scope mounts, though. -------- www.zonedar.com If you can't be a good example, be a horrible warning DRSS C&H 475 NE -------- | |||

I'm curious, dose anyone one offer a double rifle in 7x57r, 7x64r or even 30-40 Krag. That would be perfect for deer where I'm from, for the right price of course. | |||
