Joined the Double Club Now

Congrats on the new add! Looks nice!
 
I have been shooting my 458 Lott quite a lot. I don’t think it will be any worse than the 500 Jeff I just sold was. I shot this gun before we sealed the deal. Not bad as long as you are standing but on the bench is a different story.
That’s true!
 
Very beautiful rifle Mark! One day I’ll join you in your special double club ;)
 
Ok guys need some opinions from the double guys.
I finally got out to range today with the VC. It is regulated with Norma ammo according to the paperwork and target. I have some of it ordered but not in yet. In the mean time I got some Federal 570 gr Aframes and started shooting it. I mounted a Kahles red dot on it.
What do you all consider acceptable accuracy for a double? Here are two targets I fired when shooting the Federals today at 50 yards. Second target is two shots from left and right barrel.
First target is 6 shots 3 from left 3 from right. I shot these standing, not sitting , using a Uncle Buds Bull Bag for a rest. Widest spread is 2 3/4 inches.
What is your opinions on it please. Double rifles are new to me.
The Federal ammo is easier to find than the Norma for me also.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
