The only thing I can think of that is more usuless than a 600NE double, is a push feed bolt action double rifle, in any chambering!

Marc_Stokeldtose things have been around for a long time. I first saw them in '94, and think they were out for a few years before that. As you can see, they did not exactly take the DGR scene by storm
Fuchs almost always has a stand at the Rambouillet Game show, which opens on the 30th of March right here where I live. The rifles weigh a whole lot and I beleive cost around $50,000 for a .375 H&H.

gumboot458'''''''''''I think they are a bit spendy arn,t they..I don,t think a bolt action double would place a guy in the fizzel dick moron catagory....I think it is a nice looking rifle .....I didn,t see a price or what caliber it was ????.....One in stainless synthetic .411-.416 would be perfact
.If it can,t be grown , its gotta be mined ....

BrentI think anyone that makes a gun which will expel a perfectly good unfired shell, just to be able to reload the first barrel after making one shot - well they must be either incredibly stupid or a believer in PT Barnum (even if he never did say it).

BrentCool like a Rubic's cube. Pointless but a neat invention for folks with too much time on their hands.

SparticalThis rifle is based on a design from a Canadian engineer/machinist business owner (name escapes me). He also designed a bolt action over and under which took only two rounds in the magazine. It took him several years to overcome the problems and make them work. The rifles will accept rimless cartridges only. There was a brief review in GUNS magazine over ten years ago. He signed an agreement with a european manufacture to manufacture the rifle. The price was $50,000 several years ago when I checked. Here's one in 375 H&H.
