ruraldoc,

Don't want to disappoint you but Eleanor's 7x57 is still in the O'Connor family. The rifle was put together in 1951 by the team of Tom Burgess doing the metalwork, and Russ Leonard doing the stock. Although the rifle was made for Jack, Eleanor tried it and took it for herself. She used it for the vast majority of her hunting after that. She did use another rifle some, a Len Brownell custom Model 70 in 30-06. She called it her "big rifle" and used it on dangerous game, including an elephant.
