Caliber : .375 HH Magnum
Very fine sample of a 1960 vintage pre-64 Mod.70 .375 H&H "Express Rifle"
That model is fitted with a perfect bore n°1 medium 25” chrome molybdenum steel barrel that sports a "Rollover Express Sight" and, under sliding protector, a n°20 ?" ivory bead on short ramp.
The action bears a period Redfield 70W with knurled knobs and ¼' clicks.
The 13½” LOP stock, without cheek piece, is made from reddish American walnut and retains its solid red rubber butt plate and flawless original checkering, while the barrel, action and fittings are finished in perfect bluing, with some faded areas.
The rifle is in superb condition, without modifications to its originality, and represents the epitome of the professional choice; allying the best features of the proven Mauser 98 controlled feeding system to the fluidity and balance of the modern American big game rifle.
With its five shots capacity and 9lb-3oz weight, it's one of the best all around safari rifle.
