I just won an auction for a cz550 safari classics complete magnum receiver with a 375 h&h bolt face. I've never had a rifle built before, but I know the easiest (read cheapest) thing to do is a bell and carlson, and have the action fitted with a caliber thats h&h based. I've already got a 375 h&h and a 416 rigby. I want to go as large as possible and i think the 458 lott is essentially the largest for the bolt face if I'm not mistaken? I'd love to go .500j or 505 gibbs, but does the bolt face/extractor have enough meat to machine to the case head specs?

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
