My new double

I just got in my newest double. Made by Butch Searcy in .450 NE. Haven't had a chance to shoot it much yet but with the 10 rounds I had loaded up, I hit everything I shot at, up close and personal all the way out to 110 yards. Maybe I'll get a chance to put it on paper tomorrow to check for regulation but, so far it appears to be very accurate

Sorry for the sorry photos but I'm not very good at pictures.

Thanks Gentlemen.

Cal. Really? With all the fancy doubles you possess?

I certainly like it so far. It appears to be a shooter. Raining steady here today so no chance to check regulation with the CEB's but don't think it will be a problem hilbily

I agree - and while I do not think Biebs would ever admit to going to bed with a Blaser, he probably has woken up with a few!

So what you're saying Rick is that you've expanded your "pig" farming operation!

OnPoint,
You could have bought it when Butch put it in the classifieds!
Besides, it IS a .450 Nitro. It would probably hurt your puppy ass.
