Great chambering but too much of a PITA to install a scope rail.

I'm out!

Have you seen the identical H&H ‘Royal’ I’ve already got with a dovetail rail, quick release AKAH mount & Ziess Zeilklein scope on it? Or the other H&H that has PH dovetails & QR mounts? Rails aren’t a new thing, back in the day people were breathing new life into these lovely old guns by fitting ‘scope sights to them.

And then VAT on the total, so a £3K hammer price will ensure the walk out the door figure is just shy of £4K!

Minute 50 is a discussion on the 7x57R single shot, the pair of rook rifles towards the end. Otherwise just pure gun porn of steel and walnut.

Well today I went to Bisley to give these little beauties their annual outing



Didn’t do too badly either considering

We need more information that that! Calibres, ranges etc
(I feel a variation coming on!)

50m standing unsupported, DJV Roebuck target (full sized) aka “The Poachers’s Buck”

I’ve actually got three rook rifles on ticket, these two are both Holland & Holland, the top one is .297/.250 & the bottom is a ‘Royal’ but, alas, has been tubed back from a .410” to .25-20.

The BDS “Branch Rook” got a good pasting too
