470Rigby, I meant no disrespect to either of the names mentioned in this thread, they are both great rifles! It is, simply, that neither is my favorite, and if I had the money to buy as many of any kind I wanted, neither of those two would be my first choice! As I said in my post, Westley Richards is my favorite, but I see nothing wrong with any double rifle, regardless of make, or origin, as long as it is well built. All double rifles are good, in my view! I've owned many doubles in my life, and have found fine examples from almost every country in the world.
