Fellows,

I am wanting to add a 500 to my collection. It needs to be a DG rifle as it will be used in Africa (and possibly Alaska for the great bears). What are your opinions on the merits of the 505 Gibbs and the 500 NE? If I get a Gibbs what action would you recommend? Concerning the 500 NE I would most likely want a double. However, I would want to keep it under 11K. Any suggestions would be most appreciative.

Thanks
Joe Cathey
