I pretty much had it figured that it was a large bore double rifle. For some reason I just couldnt pass up the opportunity to make a wise crack. It just seemed natural after the 98 comment and seeing the pic. I hope nobody was offended.
NitroX,
I apologize for being the smart a** at your expense. No harm intended. I personally am a huge fan of the 98. I cant give much of an opinion on doubles since I dont own one but I do think they are a work of art and hope to own one someday.
Apparently, the confusing arose because this gentleman had a 470 double by Rigby on his hunt as well.
That is what people assumed has blown up.
