    9.3x74

    actually, and I appologize, as my brain frequently defaults to #$!%@#.... I have the 375 Ruger. I just picked up the 45-70 double Sabatti. They have one in the 9.3-74 which I am tempted to grab, but the Ruger is so much more the sledge hammer.... I love the double and the avaiability of ammo...

    Optics [I swear, that last post today]

    As much as I hate to look for and excuse or blame it on age.... my eyesight is not what it was when I was 20 and I hate it, but, am wondering what thoughts people have as to reflex or other sights on doubles.

    45-70

    The other thing, sorry to bother everybody, is whether or not to even bring the 45-70. Its a hog gun [BIG hogs] in Georgia. Is the 45-70 an available ammo in RSA/Namibia and is it an applicable round for game or should I just leave it home. Ammo is the Hornady 325g FTX [2100fps at 50meters]...

    Sabatti SxS Doubles Rifles Heads up on an affordable offering

    I just bought one of the 45-70s [which I really wanted for close work on hogs] from the Cabela's store in PA. Shipping it to a VA gunsmith to address the sites, trigger and stock. It was all I could do, not to buy the 9.3/74.... Should have it in couple weeks and the pigs is thick in GA...

    Your opinion on Best Caliber for plainsgame in Africa?

    7.62/.308 Going over in November and taking a .308 for plains game and a .375 in case we get the chance for larger. First time Ive taken my weapons with me, but hard for me to imagine that [up to 150kilo] a .308 wont do.
