I don't remember what the time was, but I will say it was pretty fast, either one of them did it a good bit faster than I could do it with either rifle. It was one of those case of beer bets that come up on hunting trips.

I won my case of beer by going up against a scoped 30-06 with my iron sighted 44 mag S&W at 100 yards. the advantage being that I had put in plenty of practice with the S&W where the other guy didn't practice with the 30-06 at all and I'm not totally convinced he had it properly sighted in. This was on a javalina hunt where they all laughed at me for taking a revolver, but I took a nice boar and they had nothing to show so I had the last laugh.

Granted, things in the field are a bit more variable than in the hunting camp. But how would you advise reloading a double when in a hurry?

Also, tried the above closing technique at home. The ejector was slower to close although it must be admitted that it's new and still a bit stiff.
