Ben

Also keep an eye out for second hand "new" doubles. Unlike a 'vintage' dbl rifle they can be cheaper than a new one.

As an example I have seen a base grade Merkel in .470 advertised for about $8-9,000. Not cheap but it sold quickly. A medium grade rifle new in a similar make and base model can be down to about $5-7,000.

Standard grade sort of modern doubles expect to be in the $12-20,000 price range and way way more too.

Some Spanish/Italian makers can be as low as $3,000 but rarely seen. Sometimes can have some problems.

Also a 'vintage' BP double rifle say in .450 BP can be in the same sort of price range ie$3-6,000 but it all depends on what is being sold.

A Baikal side by side in .45/70 is available in a gun shop right now for approx $A1,200 but it is not a Merkel .470 by any means.

I'm not in the market myself so my estimates might not be current.
