Mike

You are on the right track but the level of craftsmanship needed to finish a Double properly is far greater than that needed to finish a Bolt Action.

The difference between the fit and finish on a Purdy and a Searcy (your example) is also significant. I think you would also notice a definite difference in handling characteristics but that is subjective.

As to engraving, look at the pictures of the Searcy engraving on the other thread and then check out a Purdey and judge for yourself.

Money does talk.

By the way, nice troll for a dust up.
