Nice work,

What's the average size for the bulls in your area?

Nice work mate! That double rifle doesn't look very heavy, does it give a good kick?

Pato-

Great looking bulls, sweet looking rifle.
I too was noticing the slinky lines of the Webley.

Can you give us more detail on the 500, closer images of it would be great as well as it's story - chambering, regulation load and performance, etc


Cheers

Nicely done. Jacketed or cast? Friend of mine has a beautiful .500 BPE that shoots splendidly with Pyrodex and 450gr. .50/70 style bullets from a Lyman mould.

Yes!

How about some load or at least bullet/velocity info. Great gun & hunt!

A couple of really good bulls for sure.
The bull in the first photo with the broomed tips is a real beauty.
Nice old double too!

Hey pato, haven't had much time to post lately but good to see you and the young fella knocking over a few good bulls. In style, too, with hammers back! Good stuff.

Sad to see the Webley go, hope it finds a good home.

You in town for good now? Must wander down for a visit.
Cheers mate.
