Stunning and the perfect two barrel set. I would like to learn more about the 300 Sherwood cartridge however. Sounds like a darn good deer or hog cartridge
I'm drooling right along with ya.

I do wonder why it wears an Austrian/ - a German style stock w/ cheekpiece?
Cheers,

The original owner possibly used it more as a rifle than a shotgun? Possibly the original owner was a German, but then why the 300 Sherwood and the more English style engraving. Be interesting to find out.

I thought I had always heard the Sherwood was akin to the .310 Cadet round. Would that not be a little light for North American deer? Possibly it was a Roe or Rook cartridge?
Then again I feel I've also read that our Australian brothers used the .310 Cadet on kangaroos...so perhaps not.

Likely built for a Raj with the principle quarry being Blackbuck and the shot barrels being secondary.

Undoubtedly well made. I have found it hard for a double rifle to be a well balanced shotgun when the second barrel set was fitted. A double rifle grip and stock is too far different from what I enjoy when shotgunning. More of a camp meat combo to use when bored.
Out there doing it best I can.

.300 Sherwood is an incredibly anemic cartridge, but I agree, Stan, it is purty. JR
Be strong, be of good courage. God bless America, long live the Republic.
