Scheiring Rifles

[Wishfulthinker580]

So I was rewatching “Buffalo Fever II” the other day. Herbert Scheiring and Frans Oettingen-Spielberg were the hunters and they were guided by Paddy Curtis(?) and Stephan Stamm in the Selous. They were hunting with Scheiring rifles. Long story short, here are some interesting videos/links. Some of the rifles are WAY over the top IMO but I can appreciate the work that went into them. Just wish I spoke/read German..

There is a video on this page:

Google Translate often does an OK job between German and English.

Jagdwaffen H. Scheiring | The Art of Gunmaking

www-jagdwaffen--scheiring-at.translate.goog

edit: there's some oddities in the translation but i think you can get the point.

Dear Wishfulthinker580,

you can find not really much information about Scheiring online. There is a site on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/jagdundnaturtv
where you can find some videos about the company. But they are in German. The double in the video is chambered in .425 Scheiring and Franz Oett-Spielberg is using a .470 NE I think. They are famous for their accuracy. And they are very accurate. I do have 2 Scheiring rifles. One Over and Under Rifle „Bergstutzen“ in 7mm Remington Mag. and 5,6x50 R. And one Single Shot „Kipplaufbuechse“ in .300
Pegasus with a second barrel in .243 Win. I do know a littlebit about the company and if you have questions? I do speak German also.
Best regards Achim

I thought Paddy Curtis was deceased, but maybe not.

I thought Paddy Curtis was deceased, but maybe not.

He was murdered last year in Zim. The Buffalo Fever video was uploaded to YouTube a year ago. I don’t know when it was shot but I’m pretty sure I’ve had it recorded well over a year now.
