Gibbs APUN# 837, .303 British. I first handled this rifle a little more than 15 years ago and thought to myself at the time, this rifle should live with me and today it does. Really looking forward to getting this one in the field.

Now that is one very nice piece of kit there Bouldersmith!
I bet she could take a good charge on the old 303 & set a cracking pace with 150gn loads.
Perfect deer & pig loads.

Yeah, now that's what I'm talkin' about!

Simply marvelous!
