Simply incredible. Far too rich for my blood, but the tradition and the craftsmanship is awesome to behold.

Payed a visit to Holland and Holland in New York about three weeks ago ! after looking at your photos of the actions and chopper lumps I can see why they cost so much ! There was a ''cheap'' M98 500 Jeffery there for a about $37000.00 ,Double 500/465 @ $185000.00 about the same price for shotguns, including a little over under 410 !

Well it's like buying a hand built car. Guaranteed to work out of the box, at least

I am sure one could find a gunsmith that could do a similar rifle for one forth of the price, but it wouldn't be a Holland & Holland. The "Holland & Holland" add a bigger resale value plus you buy a piece of English history.

Btw. A very very beautiful rifle. If I had the funding I would love to have H&H do me backactioned rifle with Jones underlever.

Maximus,

It's been a while since you updated us on this build.

Are you too busy shooting it to include us??

Spare a photo and a thought for "we in the cheap seats".
