Exceptionally well made and presented. An absolutely beautiful rifle.

Sometimes the new Westley Richard’s Guns are too “over the top” for me, but this one is perfect !!!!!! I really like it.

You can't load 5 heavies at a time, no stripper clip cut out from what I can see anyway

Far removed from over the top engraving etc from most WR examples!
Awesome piece of kit, especially the take down feature - brilliant.

Fairly much what I was thinking.

It is certainly a brilliant rifle.

Not if I owned it. I would have that out in the countryside hunting with it. To me it would look the part with some well earned nicks/dents in the stock and worn bluing. Speaks of doing what it was made to do. I know not everyone would agree with me.

I agree with the use Greg however I would likely regret the first bump, then get over it & continue it's use without problems. It's a tool, afterall.
