Hi, Mike. Yes, do get out to shoot this 8 Bore, although, I have not hunted with it. The brass was custom made by the Rocky Mountain Cartridge Co., LLC. The bullet molds and vintage reloading equipment was made by John Millar of Canada. The spherical balls weigh in at about 920 grains, which makes this a little larger than an exact 8 Bore. The modern die set was made by CH4D. A full set of photos is posted on the Accurate Reloading forum under the Double Rifle subject heading. I will try to post the link here so you can see the set up. Chip.
P.S. I possess the original letter from Holland & Holland which was dated June 4, 1981.
