Who hunts with O/U double rifles, especially Bergstutzen?

My VC 375 Flanged tamed down to 2150fps for the 300grain heads regulates well and is now my PG O/U. It wears a Trijicon sight and is dead accurate. Note the low profile with the Henneberger mount.

I really like the Trijicon and the mount! It's low and unobtrusive.
 
That’s NICE!
Best!
 
M7y first double rifle, bought in 1970, was a Krieghoff "Teck" O/U three barrel set, in calibers .458WM, .375 H&H and 16 gauge shot. It was delivered in 1971, just in time for my first trip to Africa.
With it I accounted for four of the Big Five, omitting only rhino, which I took with my wildcat .505 SRE.

I just realized that I misrepresented the shot barrels: they are 20 gauge 3" Magnum caliber, Very handy for Guinea fowl and sand grouse. Ducks, too, as I once went duck hunting in a native canoe painted bright yellow, which the ducks didn't seem to mind.
 
I just picked up a Valmet 412s over/under with a set of .308/.308 barrels, and a 20ga/20ga barrel set as well. Not hunted it yet, but got the rifle barrels regulated quite nicely just last week.

Just moving to DM. Yes, please ask your friend if he knows somebody who might be willing to support a persistent hunt in the snow.

Hi Paul,
This is Daniel from Mankazana Safaris.

I saw your post regarding a hunt in Africa. I am sure you have been bombarded with messages and replies from other outfitters, so I will keep this one quick.
I have a feeling we have exactly what you need for a first safari.
If you'd like to hear more, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Yours sincerely,

If you ever decide to sell this rifle, I will buy it with the dies, bullet, brass, the works. Dan
