Ok I have a 9.3x74R Tikka 512. How do I "regulate" it and at what range? I have 2 big bore doubles and have tailored loads which group both barrels within 2" at 50 yards, and to point of aim. So, with a scoped O/U double is there anything different. It seems to me that there might be. First, the lower barrel may be adjustable, but my thought was to leave this as a last resort. So, should I tailor loads the same way as for a S/S double, and then see what happens at 100? I need some help here, as, from what I have read, this caliber should be at least 100 yard gun. What size groups would be acceptable at 100? etc. etc. Obviously with the scope, the impact/aimpoint can be adjusted easily. I am more concerned about typical acuracy levels with this caliber in a double, and the quickest way of getting there. BTW. I like to consider the aesthetics of various loaded rounds. The Loaded 9.3x74R has got to be one of the best looking rounds around! Thanks, Peter. PS. I used the term "regulate" as a shorthand for "develop loads". Also, I have read that the lower barrel may be adjustable but have no clue as to how to do it. No manual came with the (used) gun. Be without fear in the face of your enemies.

Post this question in "Combination Rifles and Drillings" and those folks will tell you how to regulate it. My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost. | |||
