Well, I never turn down the chance to see a good rifle! my address is at the bottom of this post.

Please let us know how it shoots when you finally go out to play with it. The .500s are really dramatic when it comes to stopping charges, so I know you won't be disappointed with it. They're also better for long shots than I ever imagined....... I took a shot last year in Tanzania (over open sights) at a wounded & running wilderbeest and it went down like a sack of coal......I've gotta admit that it was a very lucky shot as I don't reckon I'm as good as it looked..... the range was just over 300 yards!!!..... the only person more suprised than the client and trackers was me!
