Re: .775 N.E W.W Greener
|
I have seen it listed on a british homepage http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/empiregunsight/Stock.htm
It was listed for £18K.
The " 775 NE" most have been copied from the 1996 GD artical " Its a .775 Rigby"...where the author had a similar gun made by Paul Roberts. The barrel on that gun were also made by Peter Hambrush.
If the barrels and ballistic should be the same, which I have a feeling it has, the barrels has 1:41 in twist, regulated for a 870grain bullet backed with 60grains BlueDot. Velocity= 1600Ft/sec.
Caselength for the rifle = 2 7/8".
As far as the price..I recently asked a british gunmaker what a set of 12bore paradox barrel would cost to my "old" Rigby ballgun. price were approx £11K..give or take a little.
