New White
I put out an ad on a couple forums and within 1/2 hour received several replies. The one that struck my fancy was a NIB 451 White super 91 black iced with laminate stock I will have to post some pics .
Should be a good shooter. What white isn't? Right? |

The 488 grain shoot real well out of my .451 Model 97 Whitetail Hunter. I use 80 grains of Triple Seven or even 60 grains. It don't seem to care. And there is a lot of down range power with that big conical.
I bet you have a dandy there. Can't wait to see pictures. |
Sounds like a great find. I sure like mine. I am anxious to see the pics also.
|
I don't actually have the gun yet. Hopefully within a week or so. here are some pics of it that were sent to me by the person I bought it from.

very nice looking rifle. That is a real beautiful find there.
|
Is that a model 98? Seems like those are the sights they used on the 98's.
I sure like the color of that stock. |

W series Super 91

I love the look of a rifle with a blue/black barrel and a grey/black wood laminate stock. Awesome color combo, imo!!! Congrats!!!
|
I was wondering about the sites too , I got the same thing in .504. I seem to be a sucker for those laminated stock.I installed the Williams WGRS peep and have had good luck with it.
Mine likes the 460 No Ex or the White Power Punch. Steve |

Isn't a 98 a true bolt action?
Of course, with White rifles there are exceptions. A lot of them are unique in one way or another. |

I sure like the color of that stock. ![]() he said it was one of the last ones from the factory so I figured that's probably why. Dont really know for sure. ![]() the front sight got broke in his gun safe and was just epoxied back on. I didnt worry to much about the sights since I planned on scoping it. |
Either way, welcome to the wonderfull world of Whites. Doc had built every gun to serve many years of use. I have said it before, its a shame they don't make um like they use to.To bad they are not in production still

Prolly a Super 91-II, Blued barrel with black ice and lam stock marbles sights. Should have 2 plastic ramrod ferrels instead of the full length metal under rib that the originals had. Doc found a basement full of new old stock barreled actions, all blue steel and re-ferbished them with lam stocks and what ever spare parts he had on hand to complete the rifles. Doc sold them as did White/Splitfire until they ran out of parts. Not all the ones Doc sold were black iced but the ones White/Splitfire sold were all black iced.

The 98 also has the heavier lugs in the bedding system. Due to that and the heavier barrel, along with a slightly heavier stock design, it's just a heavier rifle than the 91s.
