I always try to use enough gun but then sometimes a brainshot works just as good.

Adam,
The answer to the question is: E. All of the Above.

Nice rifle.


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

Congrats on your new double. Do you happen to have a photo comparison with barrels in place?

If I could stand the freight on a new double, you have just built what I'd get, the Searcy in .450-400. Nice hunting rifle!
