Re: double rifle accuracy standards
|
In reply to:
Does anyone have a target that they shot themselves showing their double getting a 3" group (both barrels combined) at 100 yards (dangerous game calibers only)? Can you post it?
500 grains,
Here is a target from my well used old Rodda 450/400 3" Nitro double. I personally consider this a dangerous game caliber although you may be referring to larger bores. It was shot with the issue express sights, and would probably be better with a finer bead front sight. This rifle has a rough bore, but consistently produces good groups.

One hundred yard group.
The following group was shot at about 35 to 40 yards with 400 grain Hawk round nose soft points (I haven't tried them at 100 yards yet). For comparison, that orange target paster is 1".
