I just picked up a book called "shooting the British double rifle" by Graeme Wright. Its only printed 2 years ago and had heaps of info on everything to do with doubles such as load info,component info and converting from BP to nitro, making paper patched bullets and so forth. I thought if someone was interested in getting into doubles, it would be a great book to learn about doubles(all kinds ,not just British)

Cool, I'll check the book store.

Does the book have a ISBN (or something like that) number so the bookstore can search for it?

I should allso ask if there is some online bookstore where I can buy it from...

The only place that I know of is www.huntingtons.com ; that's Fred Huntington's outfit since he has his own place separate from RCBS.

Take it from the school teacher, the way to search the net for books is to use the search engines www.abebooks.com and www.bookfinder.com. You can search the globe for unusual books on whatever you want and pay by credit card. If the book is sold before you can get to it, they will tell you and you can search elsewhere. Very useful sites, I can tell you!

Excellent book,lots of good information. should be required reading for anyone who has interst in big bore rifles of any kind!

Thomas,

the mentioned book is excellent. You can buy it in Europe either from Harald Wolf http://www.hataritimes.com/ in Belgium or from Ulrich Sander http://www.usbooks.de/ in Germany. Both have it on stock.

We band of brothers!

Keep in mind that there are 2 such books..the first addition and the second addition, buy them both..

They are pretty much the bible of double gun shooting and a must for all double gun users..

Both additions are available from Huntingtons...

If one of you is interested I just finished reading this book. I purchased it here a few weeks back. It is indeed interesting and for those wanting pure information it is packed and for me anyway took many re-reads to fully grasp what I was trying to understand about doubles before buying one.
An excellent read. $35 shipped if you want.
