H&H .577/500 For Sale

I would bet my bottom dollar it’s BP only. Not an issue for me since I shoot a lot of Non proofed Winchesters and Colts.
If you take a closer look on the images I`ve attached, you`ll notice it says "6 drams".

Drams= blackpowder. It means Its proved for blackpowder originally.

27.5 grains per dram x 6 Drams = 165 grains of (black) powder. Most likely 2f.

Oh yeah, that's going to leave a mark. :E Confused::E Horrified: at both ends.
 
Today's 2F black won't give the original velocity. I use 3F Swiss and my regulation is fine in all doubles from .450 to 4-bore.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
