I'm a lucky girl!

A friend of a friend is putting together a custom made .375 on a Mauser action for me. It will be on a laminated cammo stock with a green Brownell's gun coat, Leupold rings and mount. It will have a Pachmayr decelerator pad and I am putting a Docter Optic 3x9 scope on it.

It will be fitted for me and test fired so I don't have to risk my life!

Cost......$500 plus $10 shipping.

WHAT A DEAL!

You'll be wondering just how lucky you are the first time you pinch the trigger on that Bad Boy, Might want to consider a Magna Port job. What a nice little girl like you going to do with a monster like that:eek: I thought only men had a fettish with size :D ...... Enjoy Red

Yoda,

I'd have put a muzzle brake on it but everyone says it will cause you to go deaf. Plus all the Professional Hunters complain about their hearing with these too. I tried telling them they were being such sissy's since I wanted to do this to protect my delicate shoulder, but.......... :D

Well, anyway, this gun is for DBG.

Dangerous Big Game!

Most likely I'll hunt Cape Buffalo with it next year.

I'm really not trying to scare you away from that there DBG(Dam Big Gun:) ) but have you ever pulled the trigger on anything that size, sounds like the gun being built for you is going to weight about 7.5 pounds Right ?, Go with the muzzle break, you won't be sorry, or at least get it in time to have a break put on after you shoot it once.. One more thing, Let someone video your first adventure with this thing, then post it on the site :p

I was able to field test a .375 Winchester 2 weeks ago. It was magna ported and yes it was loud. And I do mean loud... like thunder crack echoing through the country side loud.

With the brake it didn't kick that much.

I don't know how to explain how wonderful it shot other than I hit the center ring on my first shot at 50 yards. The gun was really set up perfectly for me and I have no complaints about it. I would consider getting this gun.

I shot a varmaint gun after that and my consistancy was garbage with that gun.
