W. J. JEFFERY 450/400

[PaulB]

over 100 years of service and still the epitome of design,how many things built by man with such detail to precision still work as they should and tell bedtime stories to their owners !!!

Great point Paul.

Pin Less ... Very Cool

I am fortunate enough to own one of these issued in 1910, engraved with Gaur. I'll put up photos when I can - I'm shooting it today in a Big Game Rifle comp.

Yes, I was excited to see it was pin-less

Some photos:

It is a dream to shoot. I'm taking this rifle to the Northern Territory in August to take a trophy Asiatic Buffalo. I have some 400gr Spoor Bullets on the way from South Africa for this hunt but will be practicing with my ample supply of Woodleighs in the meantime.

Excellent, good luck on your hunt
