Re: I BOUGHT AN 8 BORE DOUBLE RIFLE ONCE OWNED BY JACK LOTT
|
Quote:Well, kinda. 8-bore double rifles designed for paper cases had a groove dia of .835 - while 8-bore double rifles designed for brass cases had a groove dia of .875. This is a brass case rifle, and marked "8" bore on the bottom of the barrels.
Interesting. .875 is a 7 bore (.873) dia.
