Uberti 1885 Courteney Stalking Rifle Features The Uberti 1885 Courteney Stalking Rifle .303 British draws inspiration from the turn-of-the-century rifles favored by famed explorer F. Courteney Selous bringing the elegance and usability of British sporting arms to today's hunters. Built on the ultra-strong 1885 action it captures the balance and confidence of the original stalking rifle tradition a heritage that made the .303 British cartridge the most widely used chambering in the British Empire. A quarter-rib slotted for Weaver rings supports optics mounting while the fully-adjustable shallow-V rear sight and hooded ramp front sight preserve its identity as a classic stalking rifle. Its Prince of Wales buttstock and contrasting African-heartwood forend tip echo the refined styling of early colonial rifles while the rubber recoil pad provides comfortable management of field loads. A barrel-mounted sling swivel completes the rifle's traditional appointments supporting practical carry during long hunts. With a six-groove 1:10 right-hand twist and a 24 round barrel the Courteney delivers steady handling for both whitetail woods at home and big game abroad offering a trustworthy companion for any hunter seeking an old-world aesthetic with modern reliability.
