Very classy pairing.
Interesting double rifle. Who built it? Any pics?
I try to setup just about everything the same so muscle memory can run them. No second guessing how to use safety, dial scopes, etc. I have a few outliers for day/night thermal etc but for most of my rifles CZ550 and Leupold scopes is the choice. From 243-505 they are all setup that way.
Some of you that know me, know that I like to work up a rifle, take it on a hunt, and then explore something different and pass that rifle on down the line. Traveling has become such a pain to me as I age that I think I will stick with the traveler. Then again, without sounding gauche, I I do have some nice rifles that have never made the trip. I did have a friend take one over for me last year and got up bloody for me.

That is quite the collection! Very nice!
We are alike although I nowhere near match you with the high quality rifles you obtain. I seem to purchase a DG rifle, set it up, use it and then sell it after the luster wears off. Now I am committed to keeping what I have and focusing on the hunting. Thankfully I’m not like this with women……anymore.Some of you that know me, know that I like to work up a rifle, take it on a hunt, and then explore something different and pass that rifle on down the line.

You Aussies seem to like your 404 Jeffery’s. You have all your bases covered but inquiring minds want to know what kind of rifles? CZ, Brno?
Quite the collection! Congrats! How do you decide which one to use?
I did. Lasted about 3 weeks. After I did some work to it another AH member needed a Buff gun for upcoming trip so sold it to him.
Excellent setup. You have your leopard rifle with the 275 Rigby, your “heavy” 450 NE and scoped 375 H&H for longer distances or more precise shooting. All bases covered!
You're a good man, always helping people. But you’re pretty deadly with your 458 Lott!
Haaaaaa. Let’s make this clear. I would’ve gladly bought your Heym and killed with it. That may have been the one gun that I actually would’ve made money on. Great purchase!We are alike although I nowhere near match you with the high quality rifles you obtain. I seem to purchase a DG rifle, set it up, use it and then sell it after the luster wears off.

. I am cool with getting close to breaking even and moving on to the next one. Just a little level of entertainment for me.
The .375 will be my Leopard Rifle, at least for the first one.
Haha, thanks! Yes, I certainly thought about selling it until I handled and shot it. Now it must go to Africa and slay a buffalo!Haaaaaa. Let’s make this clear.
