I use my drilling for all and any hunts where I primarily will shoot with the shot gun barrels, for rabbits, red deer and other I use the drilling, when just walking about in the woods ie not realy hunting then I bring my combo.

In Sweden a combo is great when one hunts treed black bird in the forest and others like grouse, and quail. No shots at moving game. The combo can be said to be a single shot rifle with a shot barrel attached.

The drilling has a bigger use when a moore shifting hunt is made, a driven hunt or with dogs for fox, rabbit, red deer, boar (if you are really lucky and have a drilling regulated for brenneke) and so on, I find my drilling to be a shotgun with a single shot rifle barrel attached.

With these approaches one can moore easily find what one kind of gun one needs the most and select accordingly.

I am currently looking for a 16/70 +9,3x74R drilling preferably with clawmounts already put on it.

It will make a good second to the Merkel I already have.

Best regards Chris.

I have a few combo guns and have been looking at drillings for some time. I just hasve not found the right drilling for me. My question is given you have both a drilling and a combo when do you use each?

Thanks
Doug
