first let me say i didnt buy it for DG hunting. But i picked up a kodiak double in 45/70. I really like it! Its been too cold to give her a real workout. But with "trapdoor' loads its sweet to shoot. My wife who hates recoil shot it quite well. Off hand at about 40 yards she hit a soda can first with one barrel the the other. I cant wait to put some real loads in it.
The finish on it is very nice. some would not like the brown barrels but i like the looks of them. If you just wanted a double to shoot and hunt anything less than DG I thinks its a great choice.
