Sabatti Safari Big Five Blued SbS Double rifle engraved 450 N.E.

THE BIG FIVE EDL SIDE-BY-SIDE DOUBLE EXPRESS RIFLE IS BUILT ON A SABATTI PROPRIETARY ACTION ENTIRELY MACHINED FROM A SOLID BLOCK OF HOT FORGED HIGH-RESISTANCE STEEL TO WITHSTAND THE PRESSURES GENERATED BY VERY BIG CALIBERS.

All dimensions of this side by side rifle are oversized to get the extraordinary strength needed to resist the pressures generated by Africans Big Game Express cartridges. The EDL version features very finely engraved side plates and high grade selected walnut. Barrels in Chrome Molybdenum Steel: The bars of steel we use are all induction treated at the steel mill which translates into a longer life cycle of our barrels over that of traditional carbon steel. High resistance alloys are used to weld ribs on to the barrels, which preserves the original barrel regulation even after heavy use.

Sabatti's express rifle barrels are cold hammer forging.

Sabatti rifle all their barrels by cold deformation rather than simply by subtractive manufacturing, which results in improved dimensional consistency and allows them to use steels with better mechanical characteristics (harder).

Refined design and comfort

Drop and cast help with instinctive shooting during hunting actions. The selected grade of walnut stock with full cheek-piece, and the beavertail forearm, are hand checkered and oil finished. They help handle recoil.
