I know you post was directed at Mickey but I'd like to add a couple
of things.

Firstly, early on alot of NItro Doubles were built
on bigger actions - I have a 450/400 that is big enough
to take a 500 Nitro.

450 3 1/4" were generally thinner as it is a traight case.

In regards to
As we both know, not everyone can afford to spend $150,000.00 to $180,000.00 for a Holland & Holland
Best Quality DR. I would assume that some of the lesser expensive DR's, even some of the above are
of a quality that would be suitable for those looking for a DR and not having a fortune to spend."

2nd hand Holland's do not cost $150,000.00 to $180,000.00 unless they are made of gold.

You can buy a H&H in 375 2 1/2" for UNDER $US30,000 and a larger calibre from
US$30000 and upwards depending on condition, action, etc etc.

Re learning about DR's - Start BUYING books and reading EVERYTHING you can get
your hands on and it will all start to fall into place. Also, get a mentor who knows what's what
to point you in the right direction. Ray Atkinson and others on this forum are
good people with lots of experience - owning, shooting and hunting with DR's

Have a look at www.gunsamerica.com and just look and read he descriptions.
You will learn heaps.

Hope this helps.
