The first double that I built, about 20 years ago, was a 12-bore. Yesterday evening it took its twelfth whitetail, a huge buck, at 123 yards. One shot with a Lightfield Hybred slug through the lungs, dropped him dead in his tracks. I've attached a few photos. Best, Ron Vella.     | ||

A buddy and I took two 12ga side-by-sides and made double rifles out of them by polishing the double triggers, adding rifle sights, and screwing in rifled chokes. By trying both commercial slugs and casting some of our own, we did pretty well with them. They've become our favorite hog rifles. .395 Family Member DRSS, po' boy member Political correctness is nothing but liberal enforced censorship | |||

Ron Nice deer well done. Eat him in good health. Nitro "Man is a predator or at least those of us that kill and eat our own meat are. The rest are scavengers, eating what others kill for them."

Ron, this is outstanding. What shotgun did you build your double on? There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

Bill, I built it on a Belgian gun by Neumann Brothers of Liege. The barrels are from Hastings, back in the day when they built them in the USA and made blanks available. As info, this buck's teeth show him to be 10 1/2 years old! | |||
