I was fortunate enough to purchase this rifle.
@Dakota Hunter represented the rifle well, and it ended up looking even better in person than the pictures! He made the process a breeze.
Hornady factory ammo shot perfectly to sights. My first load attempt w/ 500gr Barnes TSX also shot perfectly to sights and produced a 2.6” (horizontal) group @50yds (pretty damn good for first reload attempt in a double). That was completely from scratch, as I had no Barnes data or VHT N560 data go off of.
This was my dream cartridge & rifle. The gun balances absolutely perfect & points where you want it with no effort. When I bring the gun up, sights are already lined up where I intend to fire!
The action is noticeably slim & trim. I really like the way the PH model is a “plain” working rifle. It shows off the amazing craftsmanship of metal & wood fit w/ clean, impressive lines. A prime example of the German engineering. I will have to have JJ work on the triggers as they are a stout 10 & 8lbs, but that should be an easy fix. Could not be more pleased.

I wisht I could have afforded it. But should you tire of it, my offer of the original hand-drawn penguin riding a camel is still good!

The 450 3 1/4” is a great round and as you have found out, easy to load for.

You did well! I fought this one hard. Had it lasted a few more weeks I don't know if I could have held out. It is a beautiful Rifle! Hope it's serves you well and you two share many adventures together.
