President Theodore Roosevelt romanticized the 1895 in .405 Win. after taking it to Africa and calling it his “Big Medicine Rifle.”

Incorrect. Roosevelt's "Big Medicine" rifle was his H&H .500/450 double rifle.

I'm not into some collecting as an investment idea. But I would be looking for a Winchester 1873 in .45 Colt, a Savage 99 perhaps in .22 HiPower. A Winchester 1895 in .405. And a Sako Finnwolf in .308 Win.

Completely different criteria though.
