Doubles of "Rogues and Marauders"
      10/04/04 02:21 AM

Have been reading the book "Rogues and Marauders" written by John Dawkins an Aussie PH and ivory hunter in Africa in the '50s. So far a bloody good read.

Have been particularly impressed with the rifles he has been using. So far, a double .450, a double .333 Jeffery and even his wife shot a .400 double. Plus bolts in 8x 60mm and 9.3x62mm.

Will see if I can post some short extracts on the forum when I've finished it and go back for bits to raise as topics. Those were the days.
