Beautiful mate, congratulations! Chris

Very nice rifles - love the screw grip Lang. I have an old nitro proofed Manton in 450/400 3.25, and it is definitely on the heavy side at 12lbs. A tad weighty, but lovely to shoot. Chris

Congratulations on a fine looking double! Lovely screw grip action Chris

Army & Navy CSL certainly retailed some pretty rifles as well as the plainer examples. I recently picked up this little A&N CSL 360 2 1/4 BPE for my collection.

There is some nice country down there for sure.

Broken Hill is an interesting place, with so much history. Sorry that I will miss you this trip. Give me a hoy next time, and hopefully we can catch up. Chris

I grew up on a property near Junee, and I have family at Girral and out near Nymagee. Chris

That would have been great Chris, but unfortunately I will be away with my next work project. Do you get over this way often? Where is home for you? (I'm from a family of farmers scattered around NSW)

Very true Bob, we tend to get neglected down here Chris

Hello and welcome from the 'Gong, NSW. Chris

Not yet Daniel, hoping to get a bit of practice in the coming months Chris

Thanks Dan. Yes, it is the rifle that was on GI, and the barrel length is 24". Chris

Very true GV. I have handled a few 9lb rifles in 500J and whilst the recoil is stout, it is manageable, especially in a field situation

I ended up with the Zero and the Heavy Prazipress 140, purely because of 50 BMG loading which the big Prazipress does with ease.

The rifle is heavy and weighs around 12lbs empty. Perfect weight for a 500 Jeffery IMO.
