Hop,

This thread is bordering on the absurd. Long range 200+ yards and double rifle don’t belong in the same sentence. As soon as you slap a scope on a double to make that 250 yard shot, you are carrying an extra barrel for no go reason.

However, let me tell you that an inexpensive ultra-compact 45-70 has been desired by some Alaskan guides over the lever gun. Having a guaranteed near instant second shot has high appeal when a grizzly is bearing down.

No greater misconception has ever been printed, than the above post! Bonanza, you know better that to make such statements! No other way to say it you are simply wrong!
