I Hollis 577/450 Martini
      24/06/08 10:48 AM

It's been awhile since it's seen the light of day so I thought I'd trot it out





nb: the safety is more for style than functionality



85grs of BP behind 480gr rn (357 mag for reference)





A rather ambitious rearsight (4 leafs and a ladder to 1100yds)



and a disappointing foresight. It's basically the flat plate with two vertical 'ears' forming a U. I tried it on the range and found it shot high so I'm thinking there was meant to be a blade in the U, unless anyone has seen something similar?

The photo's I've taken haven't done justice to the magnificent figuring in the wood so I'll try again later

Cheers
Oz
