Alan

Very nice. Is it yours?

I recently tried to register a Martini Henry single shot in .297/.250 and the gun shop refused to believe it and registered it as a .297/.230. The 5 or 3 was not easy to read. Anyway now it is officially a .230. I will slug the bore to see what the true calibre is ie a .250 or a .230.

If this rifle is yours, do you shoot it?

No I dont own the rifle,a good friend does.
Rook rifles were available in 297/230 and 297/250.
As you can see from the quality of the photo's ,camera was playing up.
Will get more photo's next week.

Very nice Al. Sidelock SxS rooks are the epitome of elegance IMO!

Keep 'em coming.
