    What is the farthest you have regulated a double rifle?

    Hi guys and happy new year from Bavaria. German and Austrian double rifles and double rifle drillings are often regulated for longer ranges (typically 100 m in this case).

    Reloading 11,2x72R Schüler (double rifle drilling)

    The Draw of the Sporting Double Rifle

    Hi guys, I'm new here so please forgive me if it's a bit bumpy at the start. I want to show you my my latest purchase, a big game double rifle drilling made by Emil Kerner (Suhl) well before the 2nd World War, probably around 1920.(y) It's chambered in the ultra rare calibre 11,2x72R Schüler and...
