AND................in every case the one who owns one, will down grade the rest! Everyone who sells one, will down grade the rest! It's called vested interest, folks!

Most of the crap I read on strings, like this, is simply folks repeating a load of Bug Dust they've heard another person spout, from a base of no knowledge, like themselves!

Nobody on this string, though some are very knowedgable, could possibly have owned, and shot all these rifles enough to make the statements I read. One week it is SEARCYs are no good, the next week it is Krieghoff's turn in the barrel, then they will move on to some other brand.

IMO, any double rifle you pay, in the neaghborhood of $10,000 USD, up, to get, is going to serve you well, as long as you do your part. I own, and have owned several Merkel rifles, and shotguns over the years, and I have to say, I Have never had a bad one. I certainly cant say that about some of the better known names! I don't own a Searcy, but I have known Butch for many years, and I know a lot of people who do own and use his rifles, and I can't tell you of even one who has had trouble with one of his rifles, and I defy anyone to show me a double rifle that shoots more accurately! Again, I can't say that for some of the so-called BETTER BRANDS!
