Thank you tophet1 and Paul.

Will put up pictures of a 300 H&H Mag and a 375 H&H Mag, both by H&H very soon. Once I have acquired these, I shall die a happy man!

Cheers

Do you have a history of the rifle ? I'm imagining a Maharaja using it to pot early morning Rhesus monkeys and Axis deer off the front lawn of his Palace from his bedroom balcony.

Ok, call me romantic.
