Here are a few photos of the new toy. The action is a Webley A.& W.C.(The Thomas W. Webley and Thomas Brain Patent No.3053 of 1882), most often referred to as the "screw grip" action.
Chambering is for my favorite cartridge, the .577 x 2 3/4. This rifle is regulated for the 520 grain 'Express' bullet rather than the more common 560 or 570 grain projectile, but is currently shooting the 650 grain Woodleigh Weldcore at 1840 fps with light nitro loads (not so light, actually!).

Here's what she looks like:

Here are the barrel flats:

These two pics show the top of the action with tasteful engraving and reference to the "screw grip" patent:

....and with the breech open:

The replacement butt-stock, although lighter in colour than the fore-end, is rather nice:

The barrel engraving is a little hard to read these days, but states the following across both barrels: "Army & Navy CSL London"
and on the left barrel: ".577/ 2 3/4 Solid Taper Case",
on the right barrel is the load information: "160 grs of C&H No.6 Powder, 520 grs Tapered Express Bullet".

As you can see, this rifle has been exposed to the elements a few times in its 110+ years, most likely in India or Ceylon. Miraculously it has not been messed with, other than to replace the broken or termited buttstock, and remains tight on the face with very good bores.

It is my intention to try and wear it out on our local buffalo population, but I don't expect to succeed. These big Webley doubles were obviously built to outlast a succession of enthusiasts!

...thank goodness!
