According to the dealer, this guy paid ALOT more for it than he is now selling it for, and he has also slapped on a claw mount and swapped the existing Zeiss for a Leopold Europa ( the latter choice does seem a bit odd to me but hey.. ).

Got some more info from the seller now, and he invited me to test shoot it.

3 inches at 100 meters, is that satisfactory accurancy would you say?

With a scope to aid accuracy, 3 inches from a 9.3mm doesn't sound very good to me.

But if shooting moose, red and fallow deer, boar and similar sized animals, at 100 to 150 metres doesn't sound like a big problem. If shooting longer ranges, I would zero the scope for one of the barrels. Both will work at short ranges, one will work at longer ranges.

Some say the above is foolish, but it is practical too. Some old DRs had one barrel sighted for longer ranges too.

3 inches though for me is not the 40 mm you were told elsewhere.

I like that rifle. Would prefer it over a Chapuis or Krieghoff. Test shooting will help you make a decision.
