SN 8930. Cal 8.15x46R. A fabulous Stiegele previously owned by John Amber, the editor of the Gun Digest. It is illustrated in his article in the 1958 issue. The action on this rifle is engraved with a quality rarely seen. One side has 3 dogs chasing a boar, the other has dogs chasing a stag in a fenced-in hunter’s park. Each panel is bordered in gold. A monogram with probably the orig owner’s initials is on the trigger guard, again inlaid in gold. Diana the Huntress with a dog and spear is engraved on the bottom of the action. Stiegele’s name is ornately inlaid in gold on the breech end of the bbl. Surrounding his name are various designs inlaid in gold and platinum.
