Verney-Carron Sagittaire o/u double rifles?
#190204 - 19/09/11 07:33 AM

Any feedback, pro or con, on the Verney-Carron Sagittaire o/u double rifles? Are there issues with some solid copper bullets being too hard for barrels, or is that just a SxS issue?

I wouldn't use solid copper bullets in any DR unless they had proper driving bands.

So that Federal Cape with Barnes is a no no?

I don't understand what "Federal Cape" is ?

Especially the Cape ?

Only some DR makers warranty their guns with solid bullets
but I don't know the specifics.

Either way, if they don't have driving bands on them, I wouldn't use them Full Stop.

OK, "Federal Cape", you mean Federal Cape Shok Ammo.

I'll leave it for others to advise.

The current factory loaded ammo with solid copper bullets is not a problem for any of the V-C O/U or SXS rifles.
