Thanks for the reply.

Not likely built by John. He sold lots and lots of barrels, but built very few rifles.

Inthe back of the room they started selling the rifles. Missed it!!!

It was a 338 WM. Still pizzed.

Bob wrote a Gun Digest article about John a few years ago. Bob also has the list of big game John shot. All in the Big Five. 250 total if I remember right.

Hello 257 X 50.

Thanks for the reply.

That would have been a nice one.

You never pay too much for something, you only buy it too early.
