Parker Hale Model 81 (I believe the model was called) I think they were. In .375 H&H Mag, .404 Jeffery and .458 Win Mag.

I had use of a .404 Parker Hale M81 for a short time and also have been kicking myself ever since. If only one would cheaply pass near by to me again ...

Interesting, this website does not agree with my recollection of which model was which? Calling the model - Model 1100M Lightweight African. No matter though.

All Parker-Hale rifle importation was discontinued in 1991. Parker-Hale bolt action rifles utilize the Mauser M98 action and were offered in a variety of configurations. A single set trigger option was introduced in 1984 on most models, which allows either "hair trigger" or conventional single stage operation - add $85. Parker-Hale also used the Brno Model ZG-47 action. Please see the Brno section for this model.
