Mike, I have a pair of Vickers .318 express rifles that are dead ringers for yours. #3509 and 4069. The bolt handles are nicely turned down military handles. I bought the first one from Thad Scott back in the early eighties and it shoots well and I took it to Tanzania for plains game. The other I bought from Cabelas and unfortunately, in its past, it had been rebored to 35 Whelen, most likely due to lack of .330 dia bullets. In an attempt to bring it back to its British roots, I rechambered it to 350 Rigby mag and it shoots well with 225 gr. Noslers. Congratulations on your rare bird! If I had seen it, I would have bought it in a heartbeat! Your rifle is in good hands with Steve, if you need pics of the bolt handles for accurate reproduction, drop me a PM. Lee.
