And BTW I don't believe the stock shape between the two ie classic vs modern "Modern Big Game" model makes a fucking bit of difference is the speed of handling.

The stock shape was made to the fashion of the time and the thinner stock and much shorter fore-end may actually be a hinderance in some quick handling situations ...




I believe the modern stock shape is designed to be functional with a scope where as the classic Rigby and similar were designed to work with open sights. Horses for courses. My reference to the Rigby stock as to Ornamental is reference to the grain in the timber only.
