During my visit last year to England , l visited the gun making firm of George Gibbs of Bristol . Mr. Crudgington ( the owner ) is an advocate of the Mayfair magnum mauser " action" for his largest bolt operation rifles , calibrated for the .505 bore cartridge and a 525 or 600 grain metal envelope bullet .
Considering the age and reputation of this fine English firm , l have no doubt that their choice of a Mayfair magnum mauser mechanism is a sound one .
