    Idk, other than they seem to be the thing! I would imagine those "Stihl's' are nice, expensive perhaps. But whichever you have good dealer support & report with .. priceless.

    @Tubby’s Canteen "Arboristsite" is a great forum, if you're looking for anything "classifieds" is a great place, less you're well aware. I enquired if anyone had an excellent cond. 288 & surely, a member is willing to accommodate!

    Buying A Used Heym Double Rifle - Any Advice?

    I thought all the 88's run on the same size frame. However, I have seen a 500 Nitro fitted on a "Jumbo" which is typically reserved for the 577, 600. Its cost used to start over $40K

    Kynoch, 4th shot. 12.5lbs & anything over 14" LOP .. would be a world of difference .. if it was priority, right now. You're suggested stance, helped significantly, Respectfully, Dan.

    The lighter, faster projectiles do seem harsh in contrast to 2100fps .. but not by much @ times.

    Everyone has a limit .. If it "fits" & a lot of practice, within your range should be devastating. I've only hunt bear, but the business end is remarkable, even the divets in the ground!

    This is really strange: In the 80's, a Bronco went missing in Duluth, criminal activity. A storm forced "The Barker" to tie up in Lake Superior, outside of port. When it was safe to enter, it raised anchor & of all things, pulled up the missing Ford a few years later! Callaway tied up in...

    I guess on the west coast, Stihl dealers are on every corner, above Husqvarna. They definitely dominate "marketing", I wasn't a Stihl fan, necessarily. But the power to weight on that 462 & 500i is almost strange. 80cc's @ 13.5 lbs.

    I remember that post. The opportunity to buy back which was once sold, is a rarity. The days of VC's Big big bores have become history .. economic downfall here & Europe. Built during the Jerome years.
