Re: Straight-Rifled SxS Husqvarna 16ga -Double Rifle or Shotgun?

Hello lancaster,

Thanks for the reply.

I had a mold made special about 5 years ago for my 16 gauge German Vogelbüchse rifles. The bullet weighs about 650 grains.



I tried to match the bullet shape that was shown in the 1914 catalog.

. . . . . . . .

These heavy bullet shoots very well in those rifles with smokeless loads, but I fear it would be too much pressure for this Husqvarna double. I will work up a mild black powder load in the Vogelbüchse rifle before shooting it in the Husky Double. It will be interesting to see if it tumbles, and how that affects accuracy.
