    Bailey Bradshaw falling block double

    The making of the rifle is as in many cases a mix of craftsmen. Barrels and action comes from Bailey Bradshaw. Engraving is made by swedish engraver Stanley Stoltz. Woodwork and everything else was made by master gunsmith P-O Stenmark from the small village Hjoggböle in the northern part of Sweden.

    Bailey Bradshaw falling block double

    Not everything makes sence and I wanted something different that makes peoples eyebrows go up. And this peace of machinery looks good and it works. I have enjoyed the process of ordering it and following its making with the gunsmith. It took some time but it was worth waiting.

    Bailey Bradshaw falling block double

    You meen that if you fire just one barrel it ejects its case and not the unfired one ? If so, I dont know. Have fired both barrels every time. Got the rifle very late last fall and havent shot much with it yet. Have to figure that out.

    Bakkie hunting

    But is the use of bakkies during hunting a result of filling the trophybag as quick and with as many animals as possible ? Does anyone return from Africa with just one er even without a trophy ?

    Bakkie hunting

    Nice to see this old thread coming to life again. It is not easy for a first timer to speak up. I guess the PH has a responsability to ask and listen to his or her client too. I remember trying to tell him how we hunt in the north of Sweden (Only walking. The use of cars during hunting is...

    Bailey Bradshaw falling block double

    Maybe it was christmas 2015 ;) Anyway, there is not much written about the double. I havent found anything about anyone using it or hunted with it. I am convinced that it is a great weapon and that the craftmanship is outstanding.

    Tommys first moose on his own.

    My 18 year old sons first moose on his own. Last fall he had a day of from school so he took our dog Caecar with him and went out to see if they could find any moose. We only had calves left on the licens. At about ten a clock I got a phonecall to my office from a very happy son.

    Bakkie hunting

    I understand and respect that we all have different expectations of a hunting safari. For me, like most others, the shooting of an animal is the last part of a long rack of events. From getting up before sunrise, freezing your but of while beeing transported to the area of the hunt, walking and...

    Bakkie hunting

    First time I went to SA 2006 I spent an awful lot of time at back of a Landrover. Hour after hour we were driving around looking for animals. I stayed 10 days and of that time I think I spent no more than four to five hours walking in the bush. Since it was the first time in Africa I didn´t...

    Nice story ! I hope I can present a similar one sometime in the future. Not about misfiring but about buffs. Not so good for Norma African PH though. I wonder if anyone else have axperienced the same thing. I make my own rounds and so far no one has misfired. I use Norma brass and they are...

    404 Jeffery

    I havent been around lately but thank you all for the nice and encouraging words. I have now released about 75 rounds and must say that recoil is a bit heavier than the .375. But there is a kick of adrenalin everytime I go to the range with it. Now what about bullets ? So far I have used the 400...

    I wish you could see me now. Big smile. Just back from the shooting range before the sun set. I just did a quick load to feel the power. 80 grs of Vithavouri N550 behind a 400 grs Hornady DGX. A light touch on my forehead by the scope gave me recoilrespect. Fortunately no blood down the...

    375 H&H cartridge cases

    Have never tried anything else than Norma cases. They have a very good reputation for high quality. They are a little moore expensive but you get what you pay for.

    Nosler AccuBond 260 gr..

    Good comment. I also use the 300gr TSX for hunting and Accubond for training and birdhunting. I think the TSX outperform the Accubond hunting bigger animals at reasonable distances.

    Do you mean the bloodthirsty Orrus Vasterbottnis ? No, not anymore. I got everyone of them during the winter 2009. It was a tough job but someone had to do it.

    Nosler AccuBond 260 gr..

    I havent used them on plains game. Last year I used them in my 375 for birdhunting. Ranges between 120 and 160 meters. Very flat trajectory and accurate. I wish there were a similar FMJ.

    I just saw an old movie with Clark Gable, Mogambo. In the movie he both cleans and uses a rifle. It looks like a classic safari rifle without scopes. Always when I see a rifle I try do determin what type it is. ( Im not so sucessful but it is fun trying ) There must be a lot of movies...
