PRE-WAR HOLLAND & HOLLAND .240 APEX, TAKE APART MODEL
purchased in Africa in 1977, from original owners family. Rifle shows very little signs of age or wear. This is a spectacular example of a beautiful Holland & Holland hunting rifle. Designed to be disassembled with a coin in order to fit in a custom carry box case. Please review photos carefully.
The little .240 Apex was the food rifle on safari. Ample for all of the plains game and a pleasure to shoot. Broken down it traveled easily. Color casr accents are bright. Folding front sight protection, leaf rear sight, storage grip cap, butt is horn (?). Quick release scope mounts with Voigtlander Braunschweis 4 1/2x scope. (scope was purchased off of another rifle). Barel 22", LOP 13 1/4, weight 7.8 lbs. Personal medallion has never been engraved. I used the rifle in Africa for small game and loved it. Returned home and put it on the rack, never fird again.
Roberson Cartridge Co is a manufacture of vintage, obsolate hard to find and wildcat calibers.
Balistically, the .240 H&H is similar to the .243 Winchester that was introduced in 1955. All H&H cartridges are well known for their accuracy, balistic performance, low recoil and moderate chamber pressure and the .240 is no exception. The belted case head designed by H&H has become an icon copied by by many manufactures worldwide.

Rember...even your brother-inlaw has a .243.
