This is also show up with the 7mm, 30, and 33 calibers too. Lenny

You have to call the cabelas closest to you. They will transfer the gun from Michigan to your cabelas. My dad lost a CZ .375 h&h this way. Lol.Quote:

They charge $25 to do the transfer.
I did the transfer thing with my Ruger Safari in .416 Rigby through Bass Pro Shops Fine Gun Library. Went off without a hitch.......While the general concensus is that the .375 H&H is probably the perfect DG/PG rifle, don't count out the .416 Rigby. I used it on everything from a Klipspringer at 200yds to my Cape buffalo and everything in between. Worked like a champ. Just remember to use solids for the "small stuff". As long I'm within 250yds, I'm confident with it.
Hey Bart I have a very nice 'original' Westley Richards .425 to sell! If you want tradition in a caliber why not start here!
as your .375 has an interesting history, any history with that rifle ?Quote:

sounds nice. most of the old .425 seem to have long barrels.
Ole Bally!!! I'd jump on it, in a flash!Quote:

Did a transfer from the Cabela's in Hamburg PA to my locall FFL dealer, it was simple. Pay for the rifle via credit card, M/O and have your FFL dealer send them a copy of their licence. If you are a gunsmith and have the FFL yourself, they will ship it to your business address.
Remember the days you could order military surplus rifles from the NRA and just have them delivered to your front door, no paperwork? Times have changed.
Gave up my FFL last month. It isnt wroth the ATF inspections and scrutiny. They treat you like a criminal just because you make and sell rifles. The Atf should be put in check too much power over your business! They literally take delite in finding any little thing you may have done wrong. Plus being able to invade my privacy at thier wihm made it not worth it any more. Plus in this economy selling a .25 MOA rifle for 3500USD is hard. You can buy a rem 700 ADL for about 425USD pretty much killing the business there not junk either.
