H&H, As the pictures show it is very effectiveOne of my favorites, a 20” .375 H&H stainless model 70. It was a standard truck axle barrel that I cut to 20” and had fluted and blued, you heard that right it’s blued stainless. It lives in a McMillian stock and has hunted the world.

Everything about that rifle is better at 20”. I lose about 100 FPS over a 24” barrel. Which is not noticeable on game.H&H, As the pictures show it is very effective
Does the short barrel come with any negatives?
Of course there is some loss in velocity. But does the rifle balance better? Is recoil unbearable?
It is a cool looking rifle!
Thanks!A dead hog picture always makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. However, this photograph is outstanding.

Very Nice.My wife calls this her "Black Gun" a .243 Catbird built by Jerrett Rifles, which is potent medicine for far shots at woodchucks (AKA groundhogs in mountains of southern Va.)View attachment 1021170 View attachment 1021171 View attachment 1021172
