I can personally vouch for Hendershots, especially Lance Hendershot - straight shooter, stand-up guy and someone who I have bought numerous guns off of. 577NitroExpress Double Rifle Shooters Society Francotte .470 Nitro Express  If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming... | |||

This is just amazing. Aleko has a 375H&H double for sale at a pretty reasonable price as well. What's the deal here? Economy or just lack of interest in doubles? Peter.

Lack of inerest in BLASER doubles,is more accurate, I think! ....Mac >>>===(x)===> MacD37, ...and DUGABOY1 DRSS Charter member "If I die today, I've had a life well spent, for I've been to see the Elephant, and smelled the smoke of Africa!"~ME 1982 Hands of Old Elmer Keith  | |||

 I stand corrected MacD, however, I would certainly like to own a Blaser double (for the right price)!!!!! I don't really need a 470 as I have a 450 x 3 1/4, but a 375H&H might be nice!Peter.

Peter I know you are "aware of it", consider Alekos 375 H&H Blaser S-2. It is a good shooter. DOUBLE RIFLE SHOOTERS SOCIETY | |||

Peter and N E 450 No2: For a guy wanting an entry level double, that standard grade .375 Aleko has would be a good one. EuroOptics has a really nice Luxus grade S2 in .500/.416. They are asking $8,500 but I am betting if you pulled out some cash you could buy it a little better. The reason I like the Blaser in .500/.416 is that it is made with the same barrel contour as the S2 double rifle. The .470 and .500 are built with a larger barrel contour. The .500/.416 would be just about the right weight. Jamison is now making .500/.416 brass. Buy yourself about 200 rounds and you would be set. I just can't seem to find any load data for the .500/.416 though.

Dave I have a K-gun in 500/416. I have some data developed by myself, plus you should be able to get some from Kreighoff. Peter. Be without fear in the face of your enemies.

Peter, How do you like your .500/.416? I know it is not super popular, especially now that everyone seems to be chambering the 450/400, but I think it just makes so much sense and it is perfect for the S2. What is your favorite powder? Would you mind sending me a PM with you load data or the load date that you got from Krieghoff? I am building a .450 Dakota right now but I am pretty sure my next gun will be an S2. I am torn between the Luxus double in 9.3X74 or going on up to a .500/.416. The 9.3 is less expensive, lighter, and components are so much easier to find. It would be a perfect compliment to my R93 9.3X62. On the other hand, the .500/.416 would be the perfect compliment to my .416 Rigby. Decisions, decisions...  Anyway, I would love to take a look at you load data if you would care to share it with me.
