Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Trump's son killed Jumbo

You can see on his pants where he wiped it off. Right below his right pocket. miles

Yup. I missed it!

If it was with a .700 H&H double, he is one of the very few who has one.

The story I've read is that Holland & Holland vowed to make no more 600s and so an American who wanted one designed his own cartridge (or more likely had it done for him.) Than he contracted with H&H to make a double for him in that caliber. I seem to recall that it may have cost him as much a $600,000 for that rifle.

I somewhere have one of the original cartridge cases, which bore his name. I believe that the cases were made by Jim Bell of Brass Extrusion Laboratories, Ltd. (B.E.L.L.), considering how I got it. H&H saw a good thing and renamed it the 600 H&H.

There are probably far less than a dozen rifles made in that caliber. In my view, it is quite unneeded, but folks do what they want.

I looked at the picture again and he used a bolt action, not a British express double, so I guess you meant a Remington 700 action, which of course is push feed.
Harry Selby used a Winchester Model 70 push feed .458 Win Mag for years after his double was broken and he seemed pretty happy with it from reports he made.

In my view, I'd prefer a 70 with CRF extractor or a big bore double, based on my own far more limited experience with dangerous African game. I tried a rifle based on a Remington 700 action, with less than ideal results. I now have both of the other two.

I'm outta here.

Same as the leatherwall.
Good bye.

Censor me....

Hmm is it not actually photobucket that took the photo down, not this site?

you would think the photobucket logo would give him that clue wouldnt yah?

Yep

He seems a little edgy....couldn't figure out for the life of me why he was ticked at Rick for photobucket blocking his pic. But it is late, and I'm halfway through a 3 day rotation. Little slow on the uptake.

Well, I guess you may never read this, but perhaps you will come back to check this thread so I will post here.

Anyway, I think you were a bit hasty in your reading perhaps, but attacking Rick when the censoring was so obviously done by Photobucket and NOT Rick doesn't show you in the best light.

I tried to send you an email to let you know that you were barking up the wrong tree, but you didn't list your email address. I hope you see this; I'm sure you would apologize to Rick like a man.

Cheers,

John
