I have been looking for a 404 Jeffery for some time for a trip I am planning in 2022. Have not had much luck finding one to buy. I am considering having one built using either winchester mod 70 375 hh or ruger RSM 375 as donor based on projects Ive seen done on here. I am looking for recommendations for a good gun smith who would be up to the task. I have never had a rifle converted before so this process is new to me. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Also if anyone wants to sell their 404j I would sure be interested. This is for a very special trip. I am planning a surprise 2×1 buffalo hunt for my dad's 70th birthday. He took me to Zimbabwe 20 years ago when I was 13. It was a once in a lifetime trip for him and he never thought he would be able to go back. This will likely be our last safari together. Thanks in advance for any advice!
