Quite some history around that rifle! The stats identifying the game taken by TR during the "1909-10 Smithsonian–Roosevelt African Expedition," and the resources needed to accomplish the hunting goals, comprise an astonishing record. The Winchester 405 rifle, plus a double-barreled shotgun, and an Army Springfield, were the primary tools used throughout the expedition. "Big Medicine" is an apt description of the 405.
Some strong recoil there, Howard. Thanks for shouldering the demo.

You're welcome. I was hoping this one might relieve some of that.

Ha, ha! No shoulders were (permanently) injured in the making of this video.
