Something Different to play with
15/01/13 01:43 PM

Yesterday my Permit arrived, and I picked this up from the local gun shop. 1923 Holland & Holland M98 240 Apex. Originally purchased by a British Lieutenant Colonel posted to Sudan. When he finished his posting he sold it back to H&H and they then sold it to a sir Tresham Lever in 1932. His initials are on the case. Interesting to get the history from H&H. They sent me a copy of the first reciept. Cost 26 Pounds in 1923. (Cost 30 pounds for the information from H&H). No more info after that. I imagine it shot far more exotic things in the past then it will get to shoot for the rest of its life. Maybe a pig, fox, or a roo for dogs meat. Came with 100 cases and a set of dies. Will play around with it once work slows down abit. If only it was a left handed action.

Can anybody shed any light on the scope or mount?
The only markings on the scope are the letters cad, and some numbers under the adjustment knob.
