This rifle started life as a .303 circa 1906. In or about 2003 it was re-bored and re-chambered by uber gunsmith Chris Labounty to .35 WCF. A practical solution to resurrect an old girl.

It was re-regulated for 250 Woodleigh grain RN ~ 2300 fps, but shoots 200 and 225 grain RN equally well.

I plan to take it on a "guided" deer hunt next year in my home state of SC. I'll report on it's lethality if I get one. I suspect it's a good killer.




Nice rifles you have there indeed..Did you ever consider the 400/350 rigby, instead of the .35WCF?

Happy New Year.
