I'm not choosy. A bespoke Westley Richards double in .500NE would be just fine.

Ses,
when you get bored with that 1895 35 WCF, you can upgrade to the 1895 big bore stalking rifle - .405 WCF. If you hand load, that cartridge will open a lot of doors for you. Elves to elephants.

My favorite two:
My M77 MkII .300 Win Mag

My M77 Hawkeye African .375 Ruger

it looks mixed with something like a native cat with a house cat.

Bengal, cross between an Asian leopard cat and a tabby. This on is a P2, ie second cross down, a direct cross P1 is just too wild. His name is Lord Ruben The Magnificent, and he acts it!

I dont want a double, I think they are ugly personally. But let's be glad we have the choices we do!

You need help.......

I have been looking for a 86 35 Winchester I can afford for years. Seen I see the 33 a lot more. Some thing I like about the 35win in a 86 seems right. Think I have some brass somewhere.

I hope you havent been looking too long for a .35 Win in a model 86, it wasnt chambered for it, only the '95.

My dream rifle is a left handed Rigby Stalker in 275 Rigby. Since they don't make it in left hand and probably won't, I can save some money.

Nice dream. I am sure they will make it in LH.

Sorry Camdog, I got that wrong, it comes with an ambidextrous stock. About £8400 from the factory, so not a nightmare by any means.

The left handers in England must all be commoners. vbg

He can get the London Best in "Vintage" style left-handed for £26,340 in 275 Rigby though.

Considering how the left handed firearms cost much, much more I'd say opposite is true.

The history of left handed guns would make a interesting book, it's seems only relatively recently there have been left hand guns. Tho I know there were left hand guns made in the 17th and 18th century.

Right now my dream rifle is any rifle that I can find ammo for! Seriously it would be a .450 double.

On the other hand, if there were sufficient middle and upper middle class left handed shooters possibly Rigby would make a Southpaw Stalker.

Tanks,
Your cat pic reminded me of a real story.
When I was home from college one summer, I met an attractive single gal and made a date to take her to the movies. When I went to pick her up at her apartment, I rang the bell and she said come on in, I am almost ready. In I went through what must have been the back door to her kitchen and as I walked past the refrigerator, her cat leaped from the refrigerator and landed on my head! Not knowing what the H was going on, I bent forward a bit and with my right hand swept the cat off my head and across the little kitchen and bounced it off a wall in the living room.
Naturally the cat squalled and ran to its owner (can not remember the girls name anymore).
Girl said. "odd , he has never done that before".
Right then I decided He would never have another chance to dig his claws into me and though she was an OK date, that was our first, and last date.
