The guys test-fired the 7.8 lb. 450 #2 SxS today. Sweet.  Adding the ribs, sights, etc. will push it to a bit over 8 lbs. but livable. More later! I can see a 7 lb. 450/400 in the future! ------------------------------- Will Stewart / Once you've been amongst them, there is no such thing as too much gun. --------------------------------------- and, God Bless John Wayne.

Bill, Reread what your father said about rifles that were too light for their caliber. 465H&H | |||

Will, What has got you so fired up about doubles lately? I thought that you were a confirmed double hating, double trashing, bolt guy. | |||

You betcha. But I am two-trigger challenged.

So it's not trigger envy then. But a clear case of barrel envy?  I guess I missed out on the earlier stuff about this light weight rifle. What is it being built on? | |||

How hard is it going to be to convert it to double triggers when you get tired of it and sell it?  Seriously -- glad to hear it is coming together.  ------------------------------- Some Pictures from Namibia Some Pictures from Zimbabwe An Elephant Story | |||

Wilbur, You keep shooting those light weight doubles and you will be back to shooting bolt guns before you know it, but your lisp will undoubtably be worse than ever!!!  Ray Atkinson Atkinson Hunting Adventures 10 Ward Lane, Filer, Idaho, 83328 208-731-4120 rayatkinsonhunting@gmail.com | |||
