This battery of Purdeys is just awesome. My favourite of the lot is the .600....I can only hope that you intend to hunt elephant the hard way...and shoot several big tuskers with it..!

What a privilege to shoot elephant with such a rifle..!

I am pretty sure Purdey would want it that way...after talking to employees of the top marks I know they hate their guns to become safe queens..

If I had the money I would have done something similar...

As for Purdey quality, I have a Purdey game gun, 12/65, 28" barrels, ejectors. That gun is on its 3rd milennium, made 1896 and re-proofed for nitro april 1913..

Its is still thight as a swiss vault door and the ejectors are perfectly timed. I enjoy it for grouse hunting in our mountains..

Being 119 years old it is still technically modern compared to other SxS and O/U guns of today.

Once again, this Purdey battery must be THE most magnificent ever ordered from this maker and I sincerely hope you will admit us pics when all are completed..
