I think if you call Woody at Lothar-Walther USA. As I remember he has the original 404 Jeffery contours. Order one of his barrels. I like the two .423 I have! Rusty We Band of Brothers!

Ditto what Rusty says. Woody can help you & he is extremely knowledgeable.  Doug Humbarger NRA Life member Tonkin Gulf Yacht Club 72'73. Yankee Station Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo. | |||

Which contour do you have on your two? Jason "You're not hard-core, unless you live hard-core." _______________________ Hunting in Africa is an adventure.

I have a Jeffery's barrel I am fitting for a customer. If you can not find one when I get back to the shop I will take the measurements for you but it will be a couple of weeks.

Jason, I ordered mine several years ago for two rifles. I didn't know Woody had the contours until I had gotten mine. I ordered to Heavy Sporter Magnum blanks and Tip Burns did the metal work.

.680 sound good for a 404. BTW I like .625 on 375s, not that anyone cares..... Jason "You're not hard-core, unless you live hard-core." _______________________ Hunting in Africa is an adventure.

Well since you said you care, I have an old FN(Mauser) actioned Sako in 375 H&H. It has a muzzle diameter of about .585, for what it's worth....
