cal pappasGents:
It is a NICE rifle and belonged to one of my closest friends. He shot it at my cabin on many occasions. What he failed to do is develop a heavy load that this babe was meant to shoot. At 17 1/2 pounds she can launch a 900-grain ball at a velocity approaching or equal to the .600 nitro express. This rifle will be featured in two pages of my upcoming book on the bore rifles.
Cheers,
Cal
