500 Grains

I'll look at my notes on Monday before I'll call JJ but my recolection is about $600. This not including reregulation if required. JJ thought that a 50%/50% possibility. Worst case as I recall, without the benefit of my notes, is about $1700 including rechambering, reregulation and reblueing of the barrels, if all were required.

AussieMike,

I definitely hear where your coming from but my thinking is that this rifle has a bolted safety, which I'll keep intact, but also safety sears to prevent accidental discharge. I'm with Marrakai on the open gun issue and though my expeirience with double rifles is near zero I've got tons with double shotguns and can't imagine the issues being any different. When in contact with game the gun needs to be ready to go and the primary safety is pointing it in a safe direction. I've never had an issue with double shotguns and hope and believe I never will with double rifles either.
