Exactly. All-in, 333s are not that common. I think I can’t count on one hand and another finger or two the 333 doubles I’ve actually seen. I’ve seen quite a few more bolt guns than doubles in 333, and never have seen a bolt gun proofed or regulated for the 250 gr load.

And what, are we now comparing the 333 flanged to the 318?

Can @rookhawk show a picture of a 333 bolt gun proofed for the more common 250gr load?

It would be great to see more pictures of this double if you have them. Some of the 333 doubles I’ve seen look like the guns for the retail India market and some are London best type guns.
