Finally got some decent light the other day, so I took a few photos of my .404 Jeffery. Interarms Mk X action, Douglas blank turned to a medium taper, Timney trigger, and Dakota three-position safety in an H-S Precision stock. Working my way up to RWS specs with 400-grain Woodleigh softs.

I have a rifle that looks in every way like that one, including exact color of stock, but mine is a Bansner in 9.3, and also by Bedeaux.

Ben,

You need some cast bullets to shoot in that thing. Stop wasting money on those copper tubing things.
