Such is the chamber pressure created, the Casull round uses a small rifle primer rather than a pistol primer. It can deliver a 250 grain bullet with a muzzle velocity of over 1900 feet per second, developing more than 2000 ft. lb. of energy.
JOHN RIGBY & CO. .22 (HIGH POWER WINCHESTER) BOLT-MAGAZINE SPORTING RIFLE, serial no. 5395, Sold to Bell on 31st May 1929, 21 3/4in. blued barrel signed 'JOHN RIGBY & CO. 43 SACKVILLE ST. LONDON', block-mounted bead fore-sight, blued receiver engraved 'SIGHTED / & / REGULATED / FOR .22 HIGH POWER / WINCHESTER CARTRIDGE', cocking-piece with Rigby patent peep-sight, 15in. pistolgrip stock with raised cheek-piece, chequered grip and fore-end, sling eyes, horn pistolgrip-cap, and much original blued finish throughout, in full length canvas and leather rifle case, the lid with Rigby label (torn); together with a framed picture of Bell in later life, some image extracts from his safaris and illustrations on aiming points, and a Safari Press set of his three books: 'Bell of Africa', Wanderings of an Elephant Hunter' and 'Karamojo Safari'. Other Notes: Walter Dalrymple Maitland 'Karamojo' Bell was one of the most successful elephant hunters of all time, as well as perhaps one of the most controversial. He was a great exponent of the use of small calibre rifles against large and potentially dangerous game. His argument was a calm carefully aimed shot was just as effective as any large calibre rifle. His favoured rifle for elephant was a .275 Rigby using a brain shot. Bell was a great adventurer, beyond hunting he saw action in the Boer War, served as an aviator in the First World War and gold-panned in the Alaskan Klondike gold rush. The nick-name 'Karamojo' Bell was earned from his hunting in the Karamojo region of north east Uganda between 1902 and 1907. He died in 1957 at Corriemoillie, his Ross-Shire estate. A copy of the entry in Rigby's register accompanies this rifle stating the date of sale as May 31st, 1929 to Capt. WDM Bell.
