Shot my first really nice double today. Met a friend at the range that had a "surprise" to show. He uncased a beautiful hammer H&H double chambered in 577 Nitro. What a joy to shoot and the rifle was a "Best Quality" made in 1898. Stunning rifle and wonderful shooter. At 50 yards, the left and right barrel were about an inch apart with me shooting it from the bench. I still haven't attempted to my 500 Jeffery bolt gun from the bench yet, but the 577 13lb double wasn't bad at all.
Gotta get me one of those!
