Quite different stocking on these two rifles, Blixen's and XAUSA's. XAUSA's stock seems thinner overall, the fore-end definitely so. And shorter in the fore-end. XAUSA, do you know from what rifle the stock came from ie a Rigby what?

I like all three rifles. Whether a vintage one, as long it was in reasonable condition especially the barrel, or a modern one. For me, plain and without much ornamation. I like the Blixen rifle especially but not its "busy" top of action.

At one time I seriously thought about the .350 Rigby as the calibre of choice for my "Tiger" rifle never ending saga. But for some reason, I just don't like the .358 calibre. Who knows, feelings can change.
