By the way, Al, I still vividly remember the thread in which you unequivocally stated you were through with bolts and from henceforth would only use double rifles. I'll dig that thread up if you don't come clean on this secret!!!

I might just dig it up anyway. It's been in the back of my mind lately. I feel there should be strict enforcement of such solemn vows.

Yes yes ok all right then.
Actually I have been true to my word and have only be using doubles up to this point anyway.
The Whitworth I bought remains unfired for now but that will change as soon as I can mount up a Lo Swing and Leupold.
Sometimes in my job I require a scoped big bore and while I own a couple of big doubles neither are scoped and it would not be a simple matter to change that.
Curl,
You know I'm still crazy for doubles and I don't think that will ever change but the easiest way to a scoped big bore for me is the Whitworth-Lo Swing-Leupold combo.

I seem to recall another doubles member getting sidetracked by a Farky a little while back!!

OK Whitworth story coming in the next day or so.
Gotta go to work now.
