I do plan on rebarreling to .375 H&H. However, unless my numerous ailments are miraculously cured, I probably will never have a chance to hunt with it, although I might conceivably take a deer with it from my ground blind. I like to think of someone else profiting from my alterations. It gives me something to do in these troubled times.

In a way, it allows me to make a statement: "This is the way I think I hunting rifle should look and handle."


That all sounds great to me. I hope you get a deer at least. I look forward to the "after" photos.

I was looking at proxibid over the weekend and I saw this rifle and thought there were a lot of similarities between it and the 375 Mauser that XAUSA bought on gunbroker a while back. In particular, similarities in the checkering pattern, bolt knob treatment and the little parallelogram in the forend. I wondered what others thought.

That diamond pattern under the fore wood of the stock, is that a phase that was popular to the time frame that stock was made or a signature of the stock maker?
I have the same mirror image under the fore arm of a recently acquired flat spring High Wall, only the insert is steel and the checkering is Fleur-de Lis type.
All very well done and a nice piece of wood.
I was told the rifle came into NZ from Canada.
As I posted this so the post above came in at the same time.
