Nice score Lloyd!!

The 300 H&H is another favorite of mine!!! I just love its graceful lines.

How about some pics?

Best of luck with it, hope its a shooter for you!

I can totally see that rig being the object of desire.  Swampan nailed my feelings on it...  Great rifle, great chambering, great scope...  No doubt it'll make a SPLENDED hunting companion!  Congrats!
You're definitely a fellow with refined good taste!

Nice find Lloyd, how long is that barrel. Got bullets?

Congratulations!  You'll have fun with that rifle ;D   Just curious...where did you run across a bunch of once fired 300 H&H brass?
