    Those are beautiful rifles. I didn't realize Winchester was doing them again. Can't afford that but they sure are nice looking.

    I'm not sure who the savage imbecile at Winchester is who keeps cursing us with crescent butts, but they have a sick sense of humour in putting the nice padded shotgun butt on the rimfire...

    I agree. It is bizarre.
    I'm always shocked that there is a market for guns what aren't shaped for the human form.

    It's a high wall reproduction. Hence the 1885 crescent but.

    thankfully, the 375 HH have a recoil pad.

    That's funny because I phoned in before the Calgary show to ask if it was the crescent butt and was told it was - which is why I passed on it. Do you have a pic of the rifle you have in stock by any chance?

    hmmmm... someone must have confused it with the other calibers. the 375 HH most certainly has a recoil pad. Please PM your email address and I'll get you pics
