May I ask what caliber your rifle is chamber for? Maybe see some photos of it? I ask because the only double rifle I've ever seen up close was some HUGE elephant gun. Loaded rounds looked like a roll of pennies on top of a brass case. My memory plays tricks on me every now and then. But I want to think the guy in the gun store said it was a 610 Nitro Express...? This was back in the 1970s. Please excuse me if I'm mistaken.

When I clicked on the image to bring up a larger image all I see is a bunch of adds to try to close out. Lengthy down loading time and still no photos. Think I will run my AV.

Very nice PC coating there but you have some wicked skirts to deal with.

i built my double rifle in 2002 /2003
it is chambered for .429 RF Express (my own design)
basically a .444 marlin in a .45 basic case

They look to be GC bullets which means the skirts would be hidden under the GCs or if shot as is, any bare spots that developed during sizing won't be touching the barrel anyway

course 71 year old eyes are doing the looking :)

Both nice looking Rifle there and the boolits. Like the color too.
Kids might think your after Barnie with that. Lol
My shoulder hurts just looking at that. Nice job.

Those are some really pretty boolits. Are these Spray Coated ? Or were these of the Shake & Bake varity ? Coating looks extremely uniform..

I was thinking that if those checks weren't already in place...well, it might be a problem!

[jeff100]

Looking at the picture of your boolits, it appears the bases are not powder coated. Is that true? Also, how did you build your double rifle, where did you get your components? Or did you machine them yourself?

That looks like an L.C. Smith to me, how do you like it?

the bullets will have a gascheck when finished :)
i built this att the swedish gunsmithing school 2002 - 2003
the action is from a BRNO 16gauge sidelock shotgun
the rest i had to make to get it to fit :)
i´ve had it as a .444 Marlin upp untill now. thought it was time for a change

Nice bullets. Very crisp edges to the grooves. Do you use any kind of mold release?

[woody402]

Nice looking bullet.

Well every one of the photos looks impressive. Looks like something I would have liked to shoot 40 or 45 years ago. Congratulations.
