Jim:

Here is just the thing for you. A nice all round multi-purpose rifle in .500-3" Express...




I think the .400-350 you mention is an excellent choice. It is the equivelent of the .35 Whelen, a great all round cartridge. I am thinking of building just such a rifle for myself.

An original rifle would be great, as would a restoration or custom gun built on an original action. There are also a number of new actions available or soon to be available. The Hagn is one. Mr. Bailey Bradshaw is about to release a very interesting new falling block action, styled along the lines of the Holland and Woodward action. I think it is going to be very good. If you wish a hammer gun like the Alexander Henry falling block there is Steve Earle's wonderful Frank Wesson #1 action. There is a chance of a quality made faithful reproduction of a Fraser in the not too distant future.

So many vices, so little time...


Glenn
