I have to echo 500Nitro. Your comments seem odd. If you have to spend thousands of dollars and you have paid too much for the rifle it can seem to be a large investment. I bought one Holland in 465 and put close to US$13,000 into it for a new stock, Rejointed Barrels, new Hinge Pin, Reengraved and Reblacked. I sold it for US$35,000, making close US$18,000 on the deal. The buyer still has it and sends me pictures of what he shoots every year with it.

Be that as it may I think that if all you want is a shooter any of the ones mentioned will work. Pigs in a Blanket so to speak.

I think you will be surprised at the lack of workmanship and finish and as 500Nitro says, you do get what you pay for. None of those guns will be sold for what you pay for them. They are what they are. The bottom end of the Double Rifle Market.

You did ask for opinions and that is dangerous here.
