What a lovely rifle.

I have never heard of a H&H in the 450 No.2 cartridge.

Interesting that the 500/450 3 1/4" of that time was proofed for 70 Grains Cordite whilst this No.2 has been proofed for 80 Grains.

It seems both the 500/450 3 1/4" and 500 - 3 1/4" nitro rifles H&H built around that time were for the tropical load.

Thanks for posting, Chris
