Hi Guys. after careful consideration, I took a pass at the Sabatti .470 with too much bad press and being my first double gun I wanted a keeper and moreover, one I could rely on. I have since bought a Whitworth in .375 H&H.
But the good news is (I hope) I have ordered today a new Merkel 140A in 9.3x74.
Has anyone got/used one at this calibre and if so what thought?
Thanks
 
From what I understand Merkel makes a good double. You should have a blast with it. Good luck.

I realize how hard the bug has bit. I’m on the cusp of safari #2 and I’m looking to plan #3 with my 11 year old a year from now while looking at my work schedule for overtime and computing the math of how many shifts are needed….

I'd like to get some too.

My wife (a biologist, like me) had to have a melanoma removed from her arm last fall.

Hallo Marius- do you have possibilities for stags in September during the roar? Where are your hunting areas in Romania?
