Re: Choice.

Depends on what you want to do Ahmed.
Could only see the 28 as a pigeon or rabbit gun - not that it couldn't take ducks but getting ammo for the 28 would be hard unless you bought a stack of it & stored it away in a bunker!
Never seen or heard about a gun nor ammo of its type, not to say there could be any about!
The 9.3x74 are common as chips, would make a great stalker for big pigs at a water hole!

That will be a powerful 9.3 DR if the same ballistics as the 9.3x64.
I didn't know a 9.3x64R existed. A 9.3x64 rimless Rimmed?

Or was this a typing mistake and was meant to be a 9.3x74R?

Typing mistake. Meant to be 9.3x74r. Purdey battery of 9 complete and in Australia. Boss battery of 6 complete and sits with Boss in England. Boss battery of three in build. 600 sxs double nearly complete s-n 10600. 22 hornet sxs underway s-n 10601. It will be fitted with extra 410 bore barrels. Final gun not confirmed. However likely to be 9.3x74r s-n 10602.

I'd always go double trigger.
If you are used to double triggers why change? Better as well.

Re: Choice.

A Boss O/U in 9.3X74R will certainly be unique!!!!!! I think I would also go for the double trigger. Can’t wait to see it.

10,000 pounds just for a single trigger? highway robbery if it is.
Pondoro Taylor liked the Westley Richards single trigger but because all his other double guns had double triggers he got rid of the single trigger gun. His advice was to stick with one or the other not a mix where under pressure a mistake could be made. I think his advice was in relation to double guns and not where other types of actions were also used e.g. he used bolt guns too so would have been used to single triggers on those, he didn't like double set triggers.

I think that is sound advice (and a wise choice).
