Gentlemen, It does not matter how fast or good these other shooters are. The only thing that matters is how fast and good YOU are. Also what matters is the reliability of your equipment. In a close encounter of the "dangerous kind", doubles are much more reliable. It only takes one jam, misfeed, improper bolt manupilitation, and you are dead, or seriously injured. And how good you are at "gun handling", especially under stress, can save you or doom you, no matter what type of rifle you have. I know I much prefer a double rifle when hunting Dangerous Game. When comparing apples to apples and oranges to oranges, I have not found a significant difference in field accuracy between Iron sighted big bores or scope sighted medium bores, double vs bolt rifles. I have taken game with my scoped double to a little over 300 yards. In ALL other caragories the double rifle seems superior to me. Until you "bolt rifle trash people" use a double enough to really know and under stand it, do not be so critical. Don't Hate. |
