Re: A magnificent Rook Rifle from Westley Richards

The WR is certainly an elegant looking rifle. I would hope it shoots as well as it looks. It would be a fun gun to shoot at the range but seems too nice to take hunting. I would certainly hate to add scratches to its finish.

The American "rook" rifle that I have is a Stevens 44 1/2 with a 32 H&R barrel. Well, my Stevens started as a 25/20SS and I found a second barrel in 32 RF. I rechambered that barrel to 32 H&R and it shoots like a dream (of course, only if I do my part). Performance of the 32 H&R is very similar to one of my favorite cartridges, the 32 WCF (32/20).
