Ralph Martini generally has a few used doubles for sale, so check out his website. Wolverine supplies has some Merkel large bore doubles in stock at reasonable prices. Calgary Shooting Center has some doubles in stock which aren’t on their website, but if you call them or email the they’ll let...

I found this article quite good, there is also some good info in Pierre VanDerwald’s book. Definitely an awesome cartridge, I only owned one for a short time and didn’t have the chance to hunt with it. I’ve thought of buying another but will probably stick with my current .404. Best of luck...

I think any of the common 180 grain loads would be a good choice.

Thanks Tom I appreciate your help !

I’ll try that. My French is quite rusty, but I’m sure I can manage.

I’m very interested in one of these. I would really like to know how the adjustable regulation system works on these, I know there are different ways to do this and I’m curious what Chapuis went with? Could you shed some light on this please Tom? I’ll probably have to import one from the US...

Yes, that’s what I actually prefer the RMR. I got rid of my SRO.

I think this book may be a good investment for me, I hope there are still copies available. I’ll send you a message!

I have no idea why this was moved to the Classifieds forum….. it’s not a wanted ad…. Could we please move it back ?

Yes, I was looking at the one at Elwood Epps. I recently got a .404 from AHR so I don’t really need it….. but it would be fun

I’m looking at a 450/400 3-14” NE Farquharson. Ammo and brass are both very scarce. I think I’ve read somewhere that it is possible to rechamber the 450/400 3-1/4” to 450/400 3” and that this was sometimes done to clean up pitted chambers in older 3 inch guns. Can anyone give me so insight into...

I have the same rifle, but not with the “Triwood” finish yours has. It was supposedly regulated with RWS 9.3x74R Universal 19g which I can’t get in Canada. I got several boxes of RWS Evo 18.8g (285gr), it doesn’t regulate well at all in my rifle so I’ll be using the brass to work up some loads...
