That's a different looking double barrel action

The ammo that gun shoots looks powerful enough to take down an elephant, or a rhino. Probably aren't many wild elephants and rhino's left in Scotland these days.

Yep any calibre you want and if you need to ask how much it is then you can't afford it.
Here's the website, enjoy:

I came across Paul Lister when I was up home last week, he's using my architect to build his new lodge. An interesting chap, got is money from the original MFI flat pack furniture business. He's also planning on reinstating wolves, beaver, bears and such like on Alladale Estate Strath Carron.
I had a contract to plant 10,000 acres of conifers there 35 years ago, in those days it was larch and sitka spruce. Evidently the acids from the spruce lead to the deminishment of wild salmon in the highland rivers.
Anyway his vision to recreate the old Caledonian forest woodland is worthy. Wolf packs, bears and beavers I have my reservations about. Even although he will be fencing the 50,000 acres he needs I've never seen a completely stock proof fence yet and it used to be my business.
Trapper Polson killed the last wolf in Sutherland in Sletdale around 1700 and its still commemorated by a marker stone on the road to glen Loth There was good reasons why the local people eradicated them.
The wild and the domesticated never go hand in hand.

Oddly enough I wouldnt have him down as the tree hugger despite the bears and bits.
Restoring the Caledonian forests is worthy of recognition though!
