@Tom Leoni can you explain how the re-regulation works on the X4?
Is it something that an experienced double shooter/loader but novice gun smith could handle?
Ive been interested in purchasing a light 9.3x74r, and the X4 seems to check several boxes.

Thank you,

Thank you,
I have the instructions since I had mine, unfortunately they are in french, but perhaps the pictures could be of assistance.

I have the instructions since I had mine, unfortunately they are in french, but perhaps the pictures could be of assistance.
Here is the translation:

[Left side of page]

Screw 1, screw 2, screw 3.

Regulation of (horizontal) convergence

1: Loosen screw number 1 (key: 1.5mm)
2: Loosen screw number 2 (key: 1.5mm)
3: Work screw number 3 (key: 1.5mm)
- tighten = greater convergence
- loosen = less convergence
(proceed at 1/4 turns maximum each time)

4: Tighten screws numbers 1 and 2 before attempting regulating shot(s)
5: Perform regulating shot(s)
6: If additional regulating is necessary, let barrels cool completely before shooting again (meaning: you can perform steps 1 to 4 even if the barrels are warm, but don't proceed to 5 until they are completely cool)

[Right side of page]

Screws 4, screw 7, screw 6, screw 5

Regulation of (vertical) convergence

1: Loosen the two screws number 4 (key: 0.9mm)
2: Loosen screw number 5 with one turn maximum (key: 2.5mm)
3: Work screw numbers 6 and 7 (key: 1.5mm)
- To lower the point of impact of right barrel (free-floating barrel): tighten first screw number 6, then screw number 7.
- To raise the point of impact of right barrel (free-floating barrel): loosen first screw number 7, then screw number 6.
NB: do not work screws more than 1/4 turn each time

4: Tighten screws number 4 and screw number 5 before attempting regulating shot(s)
5: Perform regulating shot(s)
6: If additional regulating is necessary, let barrels cool completely before shooting again (meaning: you can perform steps 1 to 4 even if the barrels are warm, but don't proceed to 5 until they are completely cool).

I hope this helps. Please let me know if anything is unclear.

Best,

Tom

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
