Hagn single shot
05/03/06 05:01 AM

Hi all, I just discovered this forum a few days ago and I am impressed with all the knowledge here. I would appreciate any thoughts on my next project which is a 375 Holland single shot.

For the last 7 or 8 years I have pretty much shot black powder cartridge rifles exclusively. Lots of Texas hunting, a guided CO elk trip and BPCR silhouette. Frankly, I am tired of the limited range and relatively poor killing ability of the 40 Sharps I prefer. I have recently begun shooting jacketed bullets and smokeless powder in my 40-70ss which ends up being a slightly less powerful 405win.

For general feral hog and other hunting I am going to buy/build a 375 Holland. I had an Interarms mark X years ago and killed a lot of game with it. But now I want a single shot. I realize that buying a stock Ruger #1 would be the smartest option, but I have a desire for a really fine action and I am considering the Hagn. I've looked at their website for a while and read all of SDH's description of it. I don't want to put $10,000 in a full Hagn custom and then use it as roughly as this one will get used. I could see myself going $5000 or so for a field grade version.

Someday I see myself killing a cape buffalo with this rifle provided I can find a PH that is comfortable with the single shot situation.

Do any of you guys have any insight or recommendations?

Thanks,
Sharps
Josh Amerine
