Hi all I am thinking of ordering a Heym in .500 Nitro….maybe a K Gun we will see as I like the 89 B most as I write this but if the 88 is a lot cheaper in Oz it may make sense financially to go that way.

I currently own a .585 HE built on a Montana PH so a .577 double is also interesting but I think the .500 is more practical…..I don’t mind the .470 NE either.

Anyway locally Bertram has .500 1/4” I assume I can just trim this to 3” and good to go.

Also stupid question but your Heym and K guns etc when ordered in .500 NE it will be the 3” version yes ?

Cheers pc3

I saw you were looking for some Swift A-Frames for your 9.3. I just bought a bulk supply of them in the 285g. version. If Toby's are gone, I could let 100 go for $200 shipped you are interested.
Thanks,
Gary
