I popped into Hollands yesterday and they have a new .577 in the rack. It is absolutely fantastic, some of the best engraving I have ever seen. It might be on their web site soon but if you happen to be in London it's worth a look, best, Mike

They purchased that from James D Julia last year for $150,000USD Its a very nice rifle ordered by the head of F1, but was never shot so I believe there selling as new. He sold much of his collection in 2004, I was lucky enough to get his Purdey rifles, some of the finest modern guns I have seen come out of London. He spared no expense and was a very particular client for both Purdey's and Hollands.

If your talking about Bernie Ecclestone, you are right - he has the best of everything.
Doesn't surprise me that he would own an unfired .577 - he is just a little guy...

Well he owned the most expensive house in the world and never lived in it, so why not have the nicest rifle in the world and never fire it....?
