Steyr Pro Hunter, .270, Zeiss Conquest 3-9x40. And yes, the daggum magazine was missing from it in this picture. Some idiot left the magazine in the safe and turned this fine piece of Austrian engineering into a single shot before this picture was taken.

yes, I took the picture with both the semi-auto and the bolt action 7.5 French. the only two French war rifles I own. they are very nice rifles and shoot very well with prvi ammo and my reloads, I did install a gas adjustable value in the semi-auto.

Here Above is my favorite Classic Bolt action rifle I use for Hunting Game in the US and plains game in Africa. It is a custom Griffin and Howe M1903 Springfield in caliber 30.06. It has refinements G&H would make to a Government M1903 rifle that, back after WWII, a member of the NRA could purchase from Uncle Sam and Ship to a custom Gun maker to Sporterise. I inherited this one from my Uncle and recently had an English Walnut Stock made in the style that Stewart Edward White used in his trips to Africa in the early 1900s. I did the fininshing of the stock and equiped it with a RedField 2x-7x Revolution Scope. All the rest of the work on the bolt, receiver, bolt checkering sights are the original G&H customising.

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
