Eleanor may have used the 25s more state side but the 7x57 was her safari rifle for plains game and the 30-06 was reserved for Lion, Tiger and other specialized uses. She shot an impressive number of trophies with it and could have filled her own museum. I only have heard of her needing to track anything once in Namibia on a ranch I had the pleasure of hunting. I liked to have a night cap in the same chair Jack did.


Sorry, I am not Bradford and I can not offer information on Eleanor's rifles. I received the pictures from a gun-nut friend of mine who lives in Boise, Idaho.
