Thread: Short fatties vs long slender ones...

Lifelong 2 firearm lusts - 375 H & H and a 308 Norma Mag.
The NM has faded but the 375 H & H is still strong as ever.
Would be a total waste of time and money though as I no longer tramp the hills.

Sorry OP, getting OT here. (It's an old age thing....)

Well, @zimmer if your lust is strong enough I’ve got a Sauer 375 H&H with enough ammo and components to last two lifetimes....toying with reducing battery to 416 Rigby and 9.3x62...

Greetings Zimmer,
Yes true Zimmer as we age our need for interesting rifles declines but our desire for them increases. I and likely you as well do not actually need most of the rifles in our cabinet but our declining remaining years prevents us from selling any, as they all have memories and increases the desire for more. Only the tales of the depression we heard from those who were actually there, plus a frugal outlook, prevent us from filling new cabinets with interesting but largely redundant rifles. This is a struggle fought out between different parts of my mind on a daily basis. In your case get the .375. If nothing else they make very satisfying hole in a sheet of paper. Perhaps another generation will take it hunting.
Regards Grandpamac.
