New to Double Rifles Need Help!!

Nice looking guns. In two weeks I'll be proud owner of a Heym...been working on it for 10 months. Then my Searcy in 470. Why I want a .470 when I'll already have a 450/400 I don't know. Oh well. Like someone said earlier. The only cure is death LOL.

Why not I really want a 450-400 to. Or a 500-416 that will be my next double I like the low recoil of the 450-400 and I think it is a great buffalo round
 
My soon to be Searcy

its good to see more people are suffering from the double affliction.. medical term "expensivus doubleitis"......and as is known by certain specialists it is incurable....:demented:

anyway nice to see the photos of your doubles every one. i think when i have finished payments on my .470 lang there might be a .450 making my acquaintance, probably a VC as somehow a card with guillame verney-carrons name and all my measurements on it appeared in my pocket in vegas last year. :confusion: :laughing::beer:

Preparing for the adventure of a lifetime. Looking forward to my 2026 Africa hunt with Van Wijk Safaris in South Africa.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
