Remington Hepburn 38-40 Target rifle
      24/03/10 10:33 PM

New member here and thought I would post a few jpgs of my RH No3 Sporting/Target rifle. The 38-40 cartridge is a target round designed to help compete at the Creedmoor comps. This design was developed by a Mr Hepburn as an improvement on the rolling block design. The rifle has a high percentage of original blue and case colour with, most impotantly, a mint bore. The original Remington medium tang sight looks like it's been on there since it was made in 1883. Shoots really well with BP or 15gr 2400 behind a 270gr RNL.[IMG]
