Think that is one of the desirable qualities should you have 2 barrels along for a distant hunt...could change from one caliber to another but really only bring 1 rifle --
For me, honestly I'd still prefer bringing 2 rifles .. Has never happened yet, key word being "yet".. but things do break.. rather be prepared and ready versus being stuck in the mud..
The increasing reason for one rifle is air flights. From non US countries luggage weights are increasingly strictly controlled. I once paid close to a second ticket for costs of excess luggage for an African safari.
Carrying two firearms is an 8ncreasing impossibility. If hunting DG and plains game, making a .375, .404, or 416 a great idea.
If bringing two rifles, what intelligent person would not make one a double rifle!
Re double barrels which are with single shots, the original takedown and switch barrels, I have a project in mind with my scoped doubles. Working with different bullets and loads, can I have a dangerous load and a longer range load. Even if only with one barrel. Perhaps with two scopes?
Switch barrel bolt actions are increasingly popular as new designs.
Want two rifles? Get two the same design! I have two Mauser M03s. Can have a .404 and a 8x68S st the same time. But can only carry one!
