My opinion is a double rifle is worth what is it used for! But I try to be a user rather than a collector or aficianado.

I do like your double and in .375 2 1/2" it is a nice calibre. What a great calibre for mildly loaded big bore hunting. If the rifle was light enough to carry up and down mountains all day I would think it would make a classy sambar deer rifle and no doubt would do well on buffalo, cats and similar game. After all the load is so similar to a 9.3x74R and that is used a lot for such game.

I think you should be doubly (pun intended) happy to get it for such a price and even more so to recover it from dastardly (suitable word for double speak) thieves. A good story of one "that didn't get away" for once.

None of my guns is engraved in a fancy manner which is just as well if you knew how I treat the poor things. More incentive to use them the way they should be,

(PS I am also intrigued by your 'moniker'?)
