it looks like a fine gun but the price is a lot higher, than what they go for in england at the auctions.

expect 6-8.000 £ in london at auctions, the hard to get calibers brings in less, that looks in good condition from the pictures but in a off caliber like that would bring around 6.500£

hope this helps as i dont want to rain on anybody's parade, but as i see it they are trying to get american prices in europe, which is not the way it usually plays out.

best regards

Thanks Peter - the info I was looking for - where the Hollis fits in a price range - I am not going to break my neck buying a double - I am looking at it as "once in a lifetime" ...however if a good deal appears... and 475 No2 (or 450 No2) has a soft place somewhere in me - IMO it can't be more British than that - with ammo Kynoch is still on - BTW is there any difference between .475 No2 Elley and .475 No2 Jeffery?
