I personally think that British rifles of the late eighteen hundreds into the early nineteen hundreds can't be matched for elegance.


I have to chuckle, such a statement is really a matter of taste and one the individual certainly can have and defend; however for my tastes, least wise in the case of single shots, a #6 1/2 Ballard quite nicely defines the terms sleek, elegance, built to fit and shoot. IMHO smile
