    Preparing to order or buy a Double Rifle: help me choose the caliber

    (Are you recommending a straight-walled cartridge for ease of loading, or for the romance, or both?) Strait Wall Cartridges so there is no ejection failures.

    Preparing to order or buy a Double Rifle: help me choose the caliber

    First of all get a Strait Wall Cartridge. I personally have a 500 NE but I would recommend a 450/400 for you. I have a couple rifles in 450/400 and love it. Also a custom built rifle is harder to resell than a Factory one, if that's something that might figure into the equation?.

    Wanted Double Rifle

    If you are Hunting Deer size Game Sure. If you are going to Hunt in Africa a 450/400 Is a Much better Choice!!! I have a 500 Nitro Double and they are not for everyone. For Buffalo a 450/400 works and if you are only planning to take one or two Elephant a 450/400 is a Wise Choice!!!
