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.

I didn't see your request re: ship co’s. My last shipment was 2023. Quotes from SBS Logistics ($1,198), Badger Cargo ($1,184 - used them) & AHG Trophy Shippers ($1,746). AHG owner's an asshole so wouldn't have used him anyway. Eastern Cape - Houston, TX, so your mileage may vary. NEVER use Karl Human Taxidermy aka Wild Africa Taxidermy on Eastern Cape. Trophies arrived shattered with no padding/packing material.
