I understand this is a question for the PH but does anyone know if one has the option to hold out for an elephant with larger broken tusk or must take a 20# if it is the fist to present itself? Any flexibility in choosing?

Tanks, what does the gun weigh

Maybe someone tried to extract a separated case with a reamer or ? I have a hard time imagining the factory would let this pass inspection but maybe it happened. The fired case tells you what you need to know.

Ruger no 1 in 500/416 or 416 no 2 with a special 1/4 rib three leaf safari sight. Change the front sight to a safari style with brass bead and flip up night sight. Definitely redo front sight in some form or fashion, please. I would opt for a provision for red dot sight, etc. but not scope. How...

Congrats, nice elephant! ……and other animals!

Yea, I caught up, I missed a page.

A lot of the 470 produced today come in at 10 1/2 pounds which seems great for carring but 1/2 pound shy for shooting? I have never shot one so you 470 men help me out on the recoil side. I’m talking about off the shelf Markel, etc., with correct stock length but no other custom stock work...

During the late 1960s a lot of 303 Enfield rifles and carbines appeared on the US markets through retailers such as Woolworth. They were in barrels or in not so attractive displays for $7.99, maybe, if I remember correctly. Also, available was the military ammo which, I believe, was loaded with...
