That'll put down an antelope when it rushes you! :shock: Congratulations. I love those Diavaris.

 

[FOTIS]

I am so excited! That Euromark stock is gorgeous but the cell phone pix are terrible.

I will post new ones when I get it.

I knew you wouldn't survive for long without a big bore thumper.

 

[DrMike]

The Euromark is a very attractive iteration. Your pictures will be much appreciated.

 

[FOTIS]

Thank you guys. Hopefully she will get here Thursday along with my reloading components so JD will have a few cracks with her after our Antelope hunt

YES WHAT AND AWESOME CARTRIDGE AND RIFLE - will drive a 350gr TSX at 2800fps, my favorite big bore Weatherby cartridge :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

True dat!

Very Nice looking Rifle!
I know nothing of the bigger bore thumpers, (Recoil - loading finesse - accuracy potential, etc).
35 cal is as heavy as I've been. I'm curious as to how this turns out for you.

 

[FOTIS]

This was my old one.

I am so glad you got a big bee again, it just did not seem right for you not to have one. :mrgreen:

 

[FOTIS]

Mike what do you think of the grain? Honest feedback please.

1. I am a wood and blue steel man and like very much the warm real feel of wood.
2. You have a light wood and the grain is good indicating a strong piece of wood for a stock and in good shape.
3. The steel seems to be in good shape from what I can see of the pictures as best I can tell.
4. It is a real for sure classic hunting rifle which I wish more were made today like they use to than the plastic or fiber glass and I can't say enough about the .416Wby
5. Unless you are going to put it in a cabinate for show, you need to keep it, load for it, shoot it and hunt with it, what and awesome cartridge and rifle for sure.
6. You gave up a beautiful classic rifle in the 8mm Rem Mag that once I handled a few little issues with it, I have one powerful, good looking classic hunting rifle indeed. Frankly, I like the the big bee you have acquired it is a winner if it shots at least 1 MOA at 100yds or better.

[FOTIS]

Oh yes

 

[FOTIS]

Wouldn't everyone agree that this is the best time for Nosler to introduce a 416 300-350 grain AB or E-tip?
