I'm tossing up the idea of having a gun case made for one or more of my rifles.

Let's start with the Jeffery .450.

Should one get a nice leather, wood and felt case for it as is traditional,

or

A more modern versatile for modern travel aluminium case, also with dividers etc for the rifle?

I like the original, but can't imagine using it for airline travel. The aluminium one is far less pretty, not in sync with a vintage double rifle, but won't get banged up and will protect the rifle better when flying.

What do you think?
