Re: Dbl 9.3x74R or Bolt 458 for DG in close charge?

Back in the old days when lead shot was king, I had a 10 gauge SxS for goose hunting, that would just occasionally double. Maybe those experiences fried my brain or incurred such psychological damage that I cannot master two triggers in an emergency.

Back when I had my .470, for practice I had a Merkel 12 ga. double trigger and I would have the guy throw position 8 low house clays as fast as the trap would reload. Cool, right?

But when the chips were down, all that went out the window. Almost got stepped on once when I discovered that tidbit of information.

It is amazing how fast I can work a bolt-action when really necessary.

P.S.

I am at a loss as to any logical reason for the recent .404 craze, but I hear at least one "factory" is busy.
