450 Ackley & Cpt Curl, if you think it would inspire others to "have a go" I will dig out my notes and write something up,I will be stuck when it comes to posting photographs though,I am a complete novice when it comes to things on the computer,most of my friends use CNC to grunt out thier actions,but I have always prefered to use the file,I can see from the photos that Mr Connolly is no slouch when it comes to using a file,that is really nice work,and the result of infinate patience!And an eye for proportion,a real artist in metal!
My actions are based of the Jeffery PD action (I have one in .475 No2 as a reference)my G, Gibbs Farquharson action in .303, seemed to be much to small for the .500,so I scaled up the Jeffery,more for the .577NE to give it some weight.I would be interested to have some dimension on "Rocdoc's" action.My other rifle is on the Westley Richards 1897 action,in .577NE.
