A quick pic of my three hunting rifles. 2 x 9.3x74 and the big .470 NE.

Well guys it's here. I have to say it is everything I expected and more. I can't wait to get the front bead on a Cape Buffalo in August. I will try and post pics soon.

Guy,s. I am just wondering after ordering my new Chapuis in .470 NE and then booking a Cape Buffalo hunt in South Africa for August. What if the new Rifle is tight as I have a Merkel that I would not like to get into a, dare I say, panic reload as the thing is still very very tight. Any tips on...

Guys I am looking at expanding my locker by adding another double. Ant thoughts on which of these calibre's I should lean towards. The main target would be Cape Buffalo and Asian water buffalo.

Has anyone ever re regulated a double O/U. My Berreta seems to have gone off the reservation with regard to its original regulated shots. If so what was the cost of such a job?

For those that might have followed my misfortune re my two new double rifles, I now have both the o/u Beretta and the s/s Merkel. What I would like to know is what weight projectiles to use for plains game and Aussie Water Buffalo. Thanks

Hi guys, for those waiting for a pic of my new Merkel 140. Well.... I got the call from my gun store to tell me the gun was in and to come look at it. I was happier that I could have imagined it was better than I had imagined and came to the shouder exactly where I wanted as if it had been...

Hi Guys. after careful consideration, I took a pass at the Sabatti .470 with too much bad press and being my first double gun I wanted a keeper and moreover, one I could rely on. I have since bought a Whitworth in .375 H&H. But the good news is (I hope) I have ordered today a new Merkel 140A in...

can a .375 factory round be fired (once) in a weapon chambered .375 H&H?

Just bought a Whitworth in this calibre. Has anyone had any experience with this gun? Also could anyone suggest a round for water buffalo down here in Australia.

Hi, I am about to embark on my search for my first double rifle. I am going to look at one tomorrow. It is a Sabatti in .470 NE. does anyone have an opinion on this weapon. I have shot with 30.06 and .375 HH but this gun has come up at what seems to be a quite reasonable price. Double guns are...

Hi everyone. I am brand new to this forum and looking forward to getting info on double rifles. I live in Adelaide South Australia and hunt all over Australia and l am lucky enough to go work in South Africa twice a year for a few months so I get to hunt there as well.
