Talked to Butch today and he's doing fine. After two back and two knee surgery's he's on his feet working 12 hour days. he remembered my rifle and the reason for my call was to find the birth date. Looks like this beauty was born in 1997. He said it regulated well with the major brands of ammo and regulation distance was 100 yrds. Thought I would pass this on.
Unquestionably a great gun at a great price. I hve been watching the double rifle market pretty closely for the past year or so and nothing seems to be moving. Just a really soft market right now. Still, doubles like this one which are virtually brand new with no risk of getting someone elses problem child aren't exactly growing on trees.
For anyone considering this rifle, I have purchased several rifles from @Heym 88 and would not hesitate to do so again in a heartbeat. This gun will be exactly as advertised and the transaction will be smooth and swift. You won't find a more stand up seller and good guy.
I really hope someone here on AH ends up with this fine rifle.
Congratulations to both you, Heym88, Sir, and the lucky buyer; I really admire the lines on butch Searcy's rifles ... Maybe an ejector 470 in the future... There's something about wood and steel, worked by a craftsman ...
IF YOU DON'T COME UP WITH ANY .458, I WILL TRY AND GET MY KID TO PACK SOME UP FOR YOU BUT PROBABLY WOUDN'T BE TILL THIS WEEKEND AND GO OUT NEXT WEEK.
PURA VIDA, SETH
I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.
Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
