new_guyI recommend Dick Murray and Bud Shaul. Either will make whatever configuration you want. Murray’s stuff is tough, but a little on the utilitarian side in terms of aesthetics. Neither is inexpensive, but both are top shelf in terms of quality. Shaul’s stuff is as tough as Murray’s, but looks a little more refined.

N E 450 No2The Dick Murray S-10 is one of the best, and most protective cases I have seen for a double rifle.
I use the Boyt takedown shotgun [canvas] cases sometimes for my double rifles but would love to have a Murray S-10.

RustyJeff Wemmer has designed on heck of a soft rifle case. It isn't leather, but it is rugged and has several good features! While I was in Odessa last month he was kind enough to show me a couple of variations of the case.
If he has them in production, you might contact him. An awesome soft case!

You're right Bobby, place the accent on "if you can afford it." You'd have to have an exceptional pistol to afford one of their pistol cases, which in most cases would cost more than the pistol.
