Part of the virtue, or perhaps vice - unsure which, of being an old man; the appreciation of some of the classics. Of course the pre '64 Model 70. But also chamberings such as the 300 & 375 H&H with their over century old record of reliable accomplishments! Not belittling the hoard of more recent chamberings, particularly the fine .300 Win Mag, but case design of the H&H series 'made to feed', just as CRF mad to feed. A match spurred by the days where reliable feeding & performance was paramount.
So my small, unsolicited moment of grinning appreciation & 'congrats' for those of us sufficiently fortunate to own such rifles & chamberings!
An old man's take!
Happy Orthodox Catholic Christmas today!
