Interesting that this has gone BTT, I just bought one of these sporters last week in .280 Ross, with a period Aldis scope. It has to come from interstate however so might be a little while before I can post photos.

It will be great to compare.

Thanks Lancaster!

Meanwhile re-reading accounts of Grey's mis-adventures on the Athi Plains, and searching for a set of .280 Ross dies.
Ah, the fun!
