Guys

Thanks for the compliments - I'm glad you like her.

The story on this one is - I found her tucked away in a rack at William Evans in London last year. She is an original 9.3x62 and had hardly been used judgeing by the excellent condition of the bore. A model 1950 made in '52. Anyway I bought it there and then. When I got back to OZ I organised the export thru Richard Whitely. En route from William Evans to the exporters the stock was broken in the mail! To cut a long story short I spoke with William Evans and suggested that if they were prepared to pay for the exporting I would take the rifle as is and have it restocked here in OZ. They were happy to do this.

The mounts are EAW and were imported by Graeme Spraggon for me. Bob de Vries did the fitting of mounts and scope and the blue job. Geoff Slee did the stock which was a blank I bought from Denli in Turkey a few years ago.

Just got in from a morning in the bush. Dropped 7 brumby's with the 9.3 - very effective. My 13 year old dropped another 6 with my old mannlicher .270 and also had a shot with the 9.3 and reckons he might use it next time..........yeah right!!

Cheers.
