Re: how do you prepare

Quote:

Do you practice with your double rifle?
Do you have a routine you go through?
If you have a routine is it something
that includes moving targets,reloading
under the clock? What other types of
pressure do you put on yourself to
preform?




I answered this thread on topic, from an informed position.

Quote:

Sinner,

You made no points, and didn't really try. Just drive by sarcasm.




I made my point relative to the handling of a double rifle, in preparation of a hunt. Sarcasm was based on your degree of knowledge and "know it all" attitude.

Mostly you ducked my question:

"When was the last time you shot 120 rounds of big bore in ONE session?"




This statement is absurd, you don’t need to shoot a double rifle 120 rounds in one session to prepare. Your shoulder will have had it by 20 rounds. Your comparing shotgun shooting, to large bore double rifle shooting, again.


Quote:

answered with a red herring about having shot "a house full" of big bore in your lifetime. Your point here was...?




My point was; that I have collected, hunted with, and practiced with double rifles my whole life, and certainly know the ins and outs of getting ready for a hunt with a DR.

Do you have a stutter? You asked this two sentences ago, and my answer hasn't changed.

Quote:

You ducked my comment to the effect of, "No one, not you or me or anyone learned to shoot shooting a 470, or similar recoiling rifle. To pretend otherwise is absurd," as well.




This was never my point nor was it asked by k80, you eluded and assumed this, not I.

Quote:

Or do you continue to imply that you cut your teeth with the big bore doubles? Yea, sure, just as the sun rises in the west.




You let me know when dealers start calling you and asking your opinion on double rifles, and hunting.

Quote:

Ok lets take the shotgun annalogy and dig deeper, what multiple of shotgun ammo have you expended shooting a SxS vs. the count of big bore SxS double rifle ammo you have expended?

JPK




I enjoy trap, skeet, and sporting clays as much as the next guy. Though it’s not what I divulge myself in over my DR to get ready for a dangerous game hunt. I would say 60/40 double rifle shooting over shotgunning for me, unless I'm getting ready for a dangerous hunt, then my focus is my double rifle. However, again the topic is how do you prepare with a double rifle, not how do you prepare with a shotgun.

BTW I have yet to see any of your double rifles posted on this site, I would think such an expert as you in the field would want to at least share a few.

Your certainly welcome to your views, however, they are not mine thankfully.
