westaussieregulating the Barrels---by that I mean getting it to hit in same spot with each barrel
What caliber and make of double rifle are you trying to get to shoot together?

ScrollcutterDifferent companies use different methods for regulating the barrels. Generally, a sliding wedge setup in the front sight.
I wouldn't mess with that though. Try regulating with your reloading(different powders, primers, bullets,loads and such).

I have a copy of building double rifles on shotgun actions. It has a chapter on regulating the barrels and seems fairly straight forward, ie no mixture of chicken entrails and Cordite applied by a witch doctor.

buchsenschmeidHi .
I can talk You through it.
I've done it before on 5 different guns, and I have 2 in the works now. It's not as hard to do as some think. (left that way so people won't know how to do it...)however it's more typing than I'd like to do here.
Contact me if You are serious, and I will have you call me when You have some time, and I'll get You through it.
