Want to buy my first double...
      10/11/04 07:41 PM

GDay fellas, I want to buy a double real bad, help me! As I have never owned one before, what should I be looking out for? Do you have any suggestions for a resonably priced rifle in say .458WM, .416 Rigby or .375H&H?

It will be used for Buffalo here in Aust (I'm pretty lucky, I have a place to hunt them 45mins away!), I have a Win70 Safari in .458WM now and it works a treat but there is just something about a double isn't there? I think it's the romance of them, I want one!

On my travels around the net looking for a suitable rifle, I came across a Baikal Double (new) that used a jack screw to regulate the barrels, they sell for like $600US! Now if a quality manufacturer used a design like this, it would drop the price on a good double down considerably. Pretty versatile too. What do you guys think? BTW, don't think I'm considering buying one of the aformentioned Baikals...ooooh!

Thanks Guys.
