Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Express Rifles and Big Bores Only The great 458 Winchester. Everyone should own one at least once

I'm sure that the photo of the left side of that rifle was probably taken because it was a good fit for the composition of his book cover...



...but for personal reasons, I like the right side of that rifle better. Mainly because I have an affinity for nice-looking bolt handles & that one definitely qualifies.



In the recent past, I've been on a scavenger hunt for a LH bolt action rifle in a larger caliber which is what ultimately led me to this thread. I didn't really have a pressing need for one, I just thought it would be a fun project to try to build a 458 WM. So I've been looking at a lot of rifles that would be suitable for hunting in Africa including those where the bolt is on the "wrong" side. While perusing, I saw this David Miller M70 in 375 H&H below at auction & thought that was some particularly nice engraving. He does good work.
