Barrels show some silvering at high points byt retain the vast majority of their factory finish. Action is very good withcrisp engraving and a few minor blemishes from field use. Wood is excellent, again with some light field use and one minor 1/4" crack on left side of action From my gunsmith: 10/6/2022: It’s a compression crack in the grain, from firing. Very old and doesn’t move. I’ll take the stock off and relieve it, it won’t get worse. See picture. Action works appropriatey when cycled by hand, bores are excellent, bright and shiny, with strong rifling. Case is very good with some scratches and handling marks. For sure, whe they built if for HRH, they put their best people on the gun. SOLD Rifle Caliber: .375 H&H Magnum |
