gringo_pistolerobest current double under 15k?
Who makes the best, low cost (under 15k), double rifle? Also be interested in hearing about problems that anyone has had with rifles in this class.

Thanks for your reply.I met a guy at the range once that was leaving for Africa in a couple of weeks and was checking his rifles. He was shooting a scoped Heym 458 Win with Barnes X bullets. That combination breaks EVERY rule about double rifles. He also has several British Doubles, adnhas ben to Africa several times. He stated his Heym 458 Win Mag was his favorite double because it had a scope and he could get ammo anywhere.
He also said he had never had any ejection problems with the 458.
I shoot my doubles quite a bit and have been hunting with them almost exclusively for 7 years. I would really like to give a 375 H&H a several thousand round test.
Just for fun.
