Buy a double barrel shot gun run slugs through it then it’s a rifle go for a 20 gauge same sped as 12 but greater distance with the 3/4 oz slugs over the 12 guage 1oz slug cause it’s not as heavy as a slug I can make dead hold hits with my pump 20 guage with slugs out to 100 yards

The cheapest new one I could find in 2016 was in the $12,000.00 range, which is why my wife bought me a Weatherby MarkV in .460 weatherby magnum (she says the store forced her to buy the gun because I drooled over it too much).

In 2004, the year I retired from my 34-year law enforcement career, I treated myself to a retirement present of a Gebr Merkel Suhl 140-2 side-by-side double rifle in .416 Rigby. Ejectors, double triggers (front articulated), two leaf express sights set for 50 meters and 100 meters (folding), 23.5 inch barrels, weight of 10.5 pounds. It prints touching holes at 100 meters. I paid $7,500. I have taken two Oryx in New Mexico, where I lived then, plus two elk there and one Colorado elk, all one shot kills. I now live in NW Montana, in the Mission Mountains and carry it hiking because it’s grizzly country. When it’s cold at night, I sleep with her to keep her warm. Unloaded, of course. ❤❤❤ this rifle!

Great video. My favorite was always the Heym Model 88 B with sidelocks. The are a bit pricey and start with non-engraved side plates at about Euro 25 000.- and from there go up to over Euro 100 000.- . Second good choice is the Merkel 160 AE with sidelocks which goes from about Euro 15 000.- for the base model and up depending on wood and engravings. These companies guarantee groups under 2 MOA and their barrels are not crossing over like many of the old double rifles and inexpensive ones. They both have the double bottom lugs and in addition a Greener lock mechanism. Over under doubles are not as desirable due to the larger opening angle of the box lock. I had an over under with sidelocks from BRNO for driven boar hunts in Europe and it grouped excellent with both barrels. It was under Euro 5000.- and a very fast handling gun of very good quality for that price. In Europe they have an E-gun site where you can get double rifles at a reasonable price, if you have a European acquisition license but most sellers won't ship overseas.

Beautiful rifle. I'd love to have an original Holland and Holland double chambered in 375 H&H with express sights. I don't need one but who doesn't love a beautiful double rifle. My bucket list rifle is either a Ruger M77 in 375 with express sights or a CZ550 in 375 with express sights. That would be the only rifle that I'd ever need. Everybody thinks I'm crazy for wanting a 375 but with 270 gr SPs it would be an excellent rifle for everything from small deer to Kodiak bears. With a good scope you have trajectories that are almost the same as a 30-06 with 180 gr bullets at 400 yrds and a Lot more energy. I'd just run open sights and use it for 100 yrd and less deer hunting. My Mossberg 500A with high brass shells has about the same recoil and maybe a little more than a 375 so that's not an issue. To me it's the perfect all around, do everything caliber.

Great content Ron! Roosevelt owned at least three doubles. It is years now since I read his books but here goes: 1. A bespoke H&H in 500/450. Bullet diameter is .458. 480 grains at 2275 fps produced 5050 fpe. Roughly equivalent to the 458 Winchester Magnum. The "500" refers to the 500 Black Powder Express from which several 500/450 calibers were derived. Basically it was necked down. This was the gun known as "The Big Stick". Interestingly his other favorite in Africa was the 1895 Winchester in 405 Winchester. There were actually three collectively known as "Big Medicine ". 2. A bespoke Adolph also in 500/450. Adolph was a German immigrant and that beautiful rifle was made in America! It was probably only used in America but I am old...might be wrong. 3. A bespoke Charles Boswell 450/400. If memory serves. it was a gift. Also used mainly in America if at all. Interesting side note: Elmer Kieth also had a Boswell in the same caliber and thought very highly of it for brown bear in thickets. The picture you have is often incorrectly attributed as the Adolph. It is the H&H. It is remarkable how internet plagiarism can spread! The NRA museum included that photo as one of several stock photos for the NRA museum where I believe the Adolph resides and some folks ran with it. All of thus from memory so I stand ready to be corrected. Cheers!

The reviews, where you look into the details of the gun and contrast and compare to other weapons and technologies, are hard to find, and so necessary for people who are looking to purchase a hunting rifle or shotgun, and I wish you would do more of them - manufacturers sensitivities be dammed. I am exploring drillings and double rifles in the american west, where some work has to be done to deal with the longer shots and distances here. The 7mm Brenneke both bolt and rimmed versions, are great candidates for a western cartridge, when loaded with modern powders and high BC bullets. If you decide to review a double barrel 7x65r, I would be very excited to hear your opinion, especially since this would not be a dangerous game rifle, but a plains rifle with both quick target acquisition and fast follow-up shots.
