Here's what the gun looks like with the new barrel, sight, barrel band and the stock cleaned up.

Looks nice, how does it shoot? I was tempted to buy one in .375. | |||

Why the rebarrel? My lefty 375H&H has as nice a barrel as you will ever see, and will stay at or under 3/4" at a hundred if you do your part. The wood was a bit rough, but came around nicely with a bit of linseed oil. If I were to change anything on mine it would be the stock, but the metalwork on mine is first rate. | |||

I didn't like how it balanced with that lightweight barrel. The balance point was almost at the grip.  I wanted it to match weight wise to my Winchester 375 H&H which has a .720" diameter barrel at the muzzle. I haven't got to shoot it yet, I got it back from John and had to leave for New Zealand the next weekend. I'm typing this post from the lounge in the Auckland airport on my way home.
