Alan:

I said "properly built" and said nothing about equal weight. I've never fired a British built large bore double that was anything like as intensely unpleasant as the large bore magazine rifles I've shot.

Large bore magazine rifles are usually too light for caliber, while doubles, especially the British guns, rarely are. Also, the British stock design doesn't belt you in the face the way most others do.

A .470 double that kicks harder than a .458 bolt action of equal weight? Was the butt of the double pointed like a stick? That's very, VERY hard to believe.
