New Merkel Update

Glad it worked out...
I don't own a double rifle (yet) , but do have some experience with Merkel shotguns. They make fine weapons , and have a huge following. It surprises me that they didn't stumble over themselves to get the issue resolved. In my opinion Merkel wouldn't be in question , but the gun shop ... that would be a sore subject.
 
Well guys. We are now way down the track and my African Cape Buffalo safari is getting closer. My new Chapuis has arrived in Australia and is in customs. I went for the .470 NE and figured when push comes to shove regarding the Black Death , that big is best. Once again when someone tells me how to do it I will post pics of all the doubles in my stable. Thanks to all for the thoughts during the Merkel saga.
 
I'd be so upset, if I got a new gun, only to have it break and not be able to come to Africa with me... :cry:

I will be looking for a set of these when my .505 is done... sadly not cashed up right now for these. :(
Need anything in trade?
Cheers,

what kind of velocity does the 140 grains list, curious how they would fit in with my current 130 gr, supply of 270s. maybe a pic of the box data listing vel. and drop. Oh and complements on that ammo belt, nice.
