Re: 505 Gibbs Rifle Belonging to Member Bruce Worthington

It seems the Brits have not lost their touch! The rifle is a work of art, and I very much look forward to reading about what it is like on the range, and how it does on the trail after buff and ele.

The extra deep magazine box is not only very attractive, but very comforting on a hunt. I shot a handful of ele cows with 4 shot mag box plus one in the barrel, and I definitely liked the idea of an extra round.

The wood on your gun is gorgeous. Heck, it bet the blank alone was 5K or more.

Also, they have gotten the bolt handle right, which not that many gunmakers can do these days.

Congratulations on owning a great piece of art and a practical piece as well.
