Let me state up front that I'm a neophyte when it comes to double rifles. I purchased a new Merkel double in .470 about a year and a half ago. I've only fired about 30 rounds through it so far. I have read Wright's 2nd edition book and everything by Ross Seyfried in the Double Gun Journal magazine for about the last five years. So, as a beginner and having to make a decision for myself about what bullets to use, I decided that I would only shoot Woodleigh bullets through my Merkel. Period. I'll let someone else experiment with homogenous bullets in THEIR double rifle.

Just my two cents worth....
