Gentlemen it is the 450-400 NE 3,25".

I do not think there is a real difference in ballistics between 3,25" and 3", however I like the older version better.
The 3,25" is an oddity today so you have to be prepared to pay "reasonable" price for it - one here in Europe loaded with 400 gr Woodleigh costs 13 EUR.

I have always wanted to own a big bore single shot that would give with the 400 grain bullet deep, straight line penetration without undue recoil.
I think it would be fun to tackle a moose with it as well as African large plains game such as zebra, eland etc.

I wonder how many of you use the 450-400 NE 3,25" or 3" version.
