    The Sabatti Double Rifle

    Indeed i have a 470 NE ejector and have sorted out three others for clients. All worked properly and well. No problem with any of them. Have found problems with several other guns. Problems sadly are not unique to any particular Make. Where do you live in the UK?

    Tanzania Leopard Hunt

    Hello, This is a 50k hunt and that is serious dosh. Sadly with no disrespect the leopard pictured is not exactly going to make it in any record book however that is still a leopard. The real killer is 4+ K to and from which is a deal breaker to us at the moment. Zimbabwe is far less costly and...

    The Sabatti Double Rifle

    Sounds like someone needs to learn how to properly clean a rifle and the proper equipment to use. Or perhaps the gentleman angered the Rust Gods? That sadly sounds a bit far out to blame the gun rusting on the gun itself.

    Is there a reason to go beyond 470NE?

    I would suggest that one ascertains just which or if any of the .470 NE, 500 NE or .577 NE Doubles that you are able to fire rapidly, with no recoil problems, it is not about being "cool" , it is about shooting to stay alive. There is not a corner Sporting Goods store in the bush to replace...

    The Sabatti Double Rifle

    It is with great interest that we have read about the Sabatti Double rifles in large caliber. We have had three of these come into our Shop all in .470 Nitro. The guns as the come are seriously good value for money, when fired with the Hornady DGS series ammo which was the ammo used to test the...

    What Calibre to Bring on a One-Gun Safari?

    Hello Ardent, hopefully you will have the time to let us know about your .375, the ammo you find that works best and to tell us where you plan on heading this fall. Where ever it is, hopefully you have a great trip, shoot straight and have a large taxidermy bill. Take Care, Glenn

    What Calibre to Bring on a One-Gun Safari?

    No one could possibly dispute what Kevin relates about the .375 H & H, it is a fantastic bit of kit and when fed the proper ammunition, it will flat out do the job and do it very well. I have been to Africa twice with a .375 and a .300 Weatherby Mag. I never did use the .300 Weatherby. Those...
