Nice!

Geedub, I thought I would use the Meathead recipe linked to in this thread in the recipe forum. Sound about right?

Great story, nice knifes and awesome riffle. I believe as you alluded to the 405 was maybe Teddy's favorite safari caliber.

Thank you sir for the kind sentiment.

As a collector/user, I will not claim that the 405 Winchester is my favorite, but somehow, four different rifles chambered for that cartridge have followed me home in the last few years, three of which I took to the range recently in order to decide which rifle would be used to slay that beast.

Very fine rifles sir, think you made the perfect choice with the double. I was curious and checked the web. there seems to be a fair amount of 405 Winchester ammunition around still. Believe Starline also makes brass for it.

That Ruger does it for me. Beautiful.

Only lever i have is a JM marlin stamped 45-70 guide gun. Not in your league but nice none the less. Kicks like a horny mule though when firing Buffalo Bore rounds. Excellent for short range bear hunting.
