Guys, thank you, very much. Big help. One thing I do like about the Tuff Case is that my heavy hunting clothes (October hunt in NW Scotland) and ammo case can go in with the gun. Shooting paper patched bullets means that whatever I bring with me is all that I will be able to get. It'll be my one and only checked bag, and I also like that it is not obviously a gun case, and that it cannot be stacked on. DLH, if this were a domestic flight, the AmeriCase would be fine by me. And I do own a Pelican hard case, complete with pressure valves, but I don't know....its design says "Gun Here."
I think I am sold on the TuffCase, which I will fit with foam at the ends. This old gun is exactly 45 inches long, leaving five inches of space total, or 2.5 inches at each end.
Ok, problem solved! You guys are the best, thank you. Have a great weekend
