I just bought my first double rifle. A Simson in 7x65R. It’s not much to look at at the moment but I hope to take care of the cosmetic stuff soon. Nothing special but I was assured by the seller, whom I have absolute confidence in, that it’s a solid, mechanically sound rifle. Can’t wait to shoot it!

Congratulations! Should be fun to shoot.
 
Congrats on the Simson . I have one and am very pleased with it. Mine is a .405.

I actually find it quite an attractive and harmonious piece. Great rifle in a great caliber. Congrats!
 
Congrats with your new double! I’d love to see few more detail pics! :)

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
