I just bought my first double rifle. A Simson in 7x65R. It’s not much to look at at the moment but I hope to take care of the cosmetic stuff soon. Nothing special but I was assured by the seller, whom I have absolute confidence in, that it’s a solid, mechanically sound rifle. Can’t wait to shoot it!

Congratulations! Should be fun to shoot.
 
Congrats on the Simson . I have one and am very pleased with it. Mine is a .405.

I actually find it quite an attractive and harmonious piece. Great rifle in a great caliber. Congrats!

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
