I bought a 06 FWT ON A referral from a friend for $1K and sold it to a dealer for 1500. You need to always have your eyes open and establish a network to help you look.
Now I'll have to look at this 8MM:) See it's all about networking. Also keep an eye out on the for sale section here. I know where you can get a nice std 06 for $1K.

At one time Randy Shuman had 4 of the 9 standard weight 375's in his possession. He owned 6 of the 9 through the years. He doesn't do internet. He usually advertises in the GunList paper ever other month or so.

Sure glad you don't have my phone number.
If you have his address, SS # and credit card info, maybe you could share that with us and the rest of the world too?

That phone number is plastered on two full pages of the GunList every other month. It is common knowledge.

Thanks I appreciate it. I might consider a std, if I can't find a Fwt. Jack

Why settle for Pre-64 .375 H&H Winchester when for not a whole lot you can have this.... From Hanks little Flemish factory.... If ones hands are large enough why not? It will require investment in professionally fitted hearing protection (I think it's called Game Ear?) but that is sound investment. Theoretically super Magnum action is preferred for caliber like this, but then one would not end up with lovely 9.5lb rifle that does not require gun boy to carry. Anyhow a big step up from Winchester Model 70 for sure, yes. Oops, I forgot when you go to the range you will have the range all to yourself. That is the way I like it.
