Hi,

I thought I'd do a little write-up about the most troublesome, finicky .458 I've ever owned.
Previous to this particular rifle, I thought I had a bit of knowledge on the .458 Winchester Magnum having now owned 6 rifles in this cartridge, but this one nearly beat me...

This particular rifle was previously owned by Bob Penfold/Matt Cameron of Hunt Australia, and was then purchase by a mate, and as I had read about these rifles in magazines when the opportunity came up to own one, I...

Contemplating selling my CZ 550 chambered in 505 Gibbs. Rifle started as a 375 H&H and was sent to Jason at Aria Ballistic Engineering in Washington state to be rechambered. Has been fired 6 times since the rechambering. Stock was refinished, fiber optic sights installed. Asking $6,000 but will hear offers. Thank you

I was looking at rifles that could be used by my kids who are motivated to hunt. I wanted something scaled down and easy to shoot for smaller people. The traditional first hunting cartridge around here is the 243 Winchester, but I wanted just a little more bullet weight. I happened upon a new Kimber Montana in 6.5 Creedmoor.
