I thinkI know which slug they were using

This double has been a project for a year or so.

I think that this level of regulation in a cape gun is more than I could have hoped for.



I had the rifle shooting well but 5/8oz 16ga rem slugs were consistantly shooting to the right by 6" at 50 yards.

I switched to Breneke 2 3/4, 1oz and got the above results. The shotgun has short chambers.
The rifle stringing was me (It was um,cold.)
The 8x58r Sauer barrel shoots to the top of the bead at 50 yards and the shotgun shoots to the center at that range.

Considering that when I bought it, the rifle wouldn't shoot into 6" at 25yds I'm pretty happy.

It's from 1911. I wonder if it was actually regulated with the same slugs?




Cheers

Tom
