This is one from a chapter about wildcats in the timeless Ladeboken nr 3 . Published in the mid 90s .

What it is about is the easy remake of a say .308 or .30-06 double or drilling or combo gun into a Rimmed one .

All is needed is a 7x65R case , reformed and trimmed and then get a gun smith to make a groove in the ejector or likely the Extractor for the R .

And plus side , you can still fire the same standard ammo as your own reloads .

I heard about a drilling in 6,5x55 being so altered to also use 6,5x57R case and also the same x55 case .


In case someone wonders about my post , well alternatives when price quote for selling such a dr set is way lower one hoped and price to alter the extractors and some 7x65R cases will be the same .

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
