With friends like these…………  Brett DRSS Life Member SCI Life Member NRA Life Member WSF Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick.

May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep.

Brett looking forward to the pics. So yours is a 3 1/4" and Cal's a 3"? What load is it proofed for and regulated for? Looking forward to some details and loads. Cheers, Chris DRSS | |||

I'll post pictures when it arrives. It's a 3 1/4" and Cal's is a 3". It's regulated for 570 grain bullets, but I'm not sure how many grains cordite. I'll likely use 110-112 grains of IMR 4831 for the 570 grain bullets and some charge of IMR 4198 with some 440 grain bullets for nitro for black loads.

My first Double Rifle was in fact a Watson Bros in 500 Nitro purchased at an estate sale, I was later contacted in person by a family member begging for the rifle back. He exclaimed he was out of the country when the rifle was sold and wanted it back as it was his Dads rifle, I excepted the refund and let the man have his rifle, I still cant help but smell bullshit everytime I think about that little scenario.
