Re: Which DR cartridge for YOU!


Mauserrifle,

I don't mind your suggestion - I'll put my 2 bob in.

The problem I see is that you can't go by the name on the gun
all of the time - you need to delve down into who made the gun.
ie Army and Navy DR's - often made on Webely Screw Grip
and PHV 1 Actions.

Like the Army and Navy 577 and 450/400 SafariKid posted as for
sale. Ray Atkinson made a comment on the AR Forum that you couldn't
do any better.

Alot of people - especially in the past and particulalry in the US
pooh poohed Army and Navy as they didn't understand. The same
as people can the Holland Dominion Sidelock action "as it's not a Royal"
without realising the reason some DR's were built on these action - they
are probably THE STRONGEST Working Sidelock action for DR's.

The Webley actions - both Webely Screw Grip and PHV 1 Actions are
again the strongest Boxlock actions around as well as always being well made.

Webely Screw Grip and PHV 1 Actions ae found on many makers guns.

I've just given you my hint as to 3 actions I like.

Hope this helps
