while i was at cabelas in buda texas today, i
looked at 2 krieghoff, 2 merkels.. the krieghoff's are in 500 and 470 nitro... the merkels are 470 nitro and 30-06..... most impresssed with the merkels... seems to have better balance... i'm a novice when it comes to the doubles, but i liked the merkel 140-2 better....also looked at a searcy in 470 nitro at dury's in san antonio., texas... its a used gun, made for an outdoor writer, used very little....prices ranged from $10K TO 13K US....
