I asked if he could make one in 10mm and he said no problem.
I think he had already made a couple in 45acp.

Saw the ones that Jim made a few times on his stall at Bisley

Always had a .455 in mind as a nice indoor Gallery rifle, or a 32/20

Was not aware that he'd stopped. Pity.

I shot a lovely Martini-actioned take-down rifle in 5.6x50R a few years back. It had been built by a Scottish maker in the early-90s, with a very nice safety catch added plus scope, it was a real tack-driver at 100 & 200yds and was being used by the owner for roe stalking.

I still covet this rifle.
