A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

Man there are some seriously pimped out rifles in these photos.
The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

The food looks good. I was just responding to the MkV with something equally gauche.

Didn't realize until I enlarged the picture that this is Jim Corbett's .275 Rigby (aka 7x57 for the unwashed) that "has accounted for many man-eaters". If you can't read the letter in the second pic hit Ctrl + to enlarge the image, then hit Ctrl - to put it back to regular size. The third picture is a full length view of the rifle. I can't think of a rifle in the world that would have more value than this one. Thanks, Jim!
