Pretty low estimate on it, sir. Perhaps it should be your first purchase of the new year? Would go well with the rest of your Henry's and the .360 2 1/4" is a doll

I was at Holt's and blew it completely, did not check time it was due and was handling it in the viewing hall when I saw it up on the screen

By the time I had run up to the auction room via stairs and corridors it had sold - for £1700 + commission

Somebody was lucky, I was going to put £1000 on top of that, lovely little rifle

Ah TH44 Bugger!

Did you catch what the Certus .22lr and the Certus .400 went for?
Or the Parker Hale .404 Jeffery or Lee Speeds?

Hi Ash

I did not look for them but this should get you there - the full list with prices realised Don't forget the 30% commission!
