Re: Sabatti Double Rifles, Brickbats & Bouquets

WITHOUT PREJUDICE

These photos were taken by a gunsmith who own a rifle manufacturing business and was asked to perform some tests to find out why this rifle (.450/400) was not shooting as per the "Target" The report from this group of gunsmiths with access to a very broad range of test equipment showed various concerns and I am going to report this in due course but the following has been confirmed without question in the States. I guess Australia has the same problems but is not being admitted to.
In the States.:
1. Cabella is aware of the problems with regulation (Or lack thereof by many owners of the Sabatti)
2. They are aware of the way that Sabatti regulates their 'trouble' Double Rifles (If necessary)
3. Cabella is offering a repair by way of re regulation by Sabatti in Italy, replacement or your money back.
4. Sabatti in Italy is aware of these problems as it has been advised by Cabella's numerous times.

Missing Rifling

In the report to follow, the rifle shot in a 'Huntable' manner with Hornady Soft & Solids but not with any other load and this was not the load the rifle was regulated for.
