Interesting thread. Having gone through the double rifle research/buy process all I can say is the best of luck and if you can make it work, lots of people will be interested. A few observations; I don't care for the straight grip on a DR especially a BIG bore because of recoil issues. The sights look weird, but then again that's just a preference on my part. As far as shotgun actions, no issues there, LOTS of DR makers first used them, Merkel comes to mind. If these are Huglus, they make some nice stuff (their labor costs are low). A 400gr .405@ 2100 fps is WAY over spec so I'd be leery about that. Lastly, there is a reason as to why doubles are so darned expensive BUT if this new company can do it without sacrificing quality & reliability, I'd love to check one out.



A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
