Yea mate I have one a #1, 300H&H, Craig Boddington special run, I think.
I really like it, taken a few deer and a black bear with it, its a tad heavy, but seen as its a safari, guess that's to be expected,
Have my eye on another, either a #1A or a RSI, med size cal, 7x57 or 6.5x55 would be perfect, I really like the fullstock,
I recon, the wood was better, on the older ones,
Heading back to Canada, once the fires are under control, in the town I was living in, cheaper there, new about $1500,
Wilsons sports in Wanganui has a few, been tempted to stop in a few times.
I like the discipline of only one shot, the compactness, shorter due to no action length, and the nostalgia of a time gone,
Plus quality walnut, and deep blued steel.
Hears mine in action, Northern Alberta, with a yearling whitetail for the table.
