I ran across this article. Thought y'all might enjoy it. Kwaheri Safari The only historical double I would care to own. . .The one with the inscription, "Mark R. Selby From Uncle Bob Ruark." Rusty We Band of Brothers! DRSS, NRA & SCI Life Member "I am rejoiced at my fate. Do not be uneasy about me, for I am with my friends." ----- David Crockett in his last letter (to his children), January 9th, 1836 "I will never forsake Texas and her cause. I am her son." ----- Jose Antonio Navarro, from Mexican Prison in 1841 "for I have sworn upon the altar of god eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man." Thomas Jefferson Declaration of Arbroath April 6, 1320-“. . .It is not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.” | ||

Note the profile of both the barrel and the stock on that wonderful 416. That could be reproduced in an afforable, CRF factory rifle for today but no one does it. Hope you find the conclusion of the article Rusty, thx! | |||

Affordable is the magic word. Plenty of people making them. | |||

Thank you Rusty; I started reading Robert Ruark in the midfiftys; his writing started me on a lifetime of hunting and shooting. I have all of his books. THANK YOU again! Jack | |||

Cannoneer, I too started reading Ruark in the 50s - his regular column in our paper in Brooklyn. I started out at about 8 with two single shot 22s which I still use ! So I undestand Selby's feelings. The "shoot straight " is good advice !  | |||
