I also have one of these very nice rifles. It is indeed fun to shoot. I have had it for several years now but have never hunted with it. I would like to take it hog hunting in Texas or some other hog infested location. I too read an article, perhaps the same one, about the Africa hunt. I don't remember anything about the loads used but I do remember some of the large game he killed with it. I found that mine was not regulated as well as I would like for it to have been with the factory loads I was using. I do not reload so I started experimenting. I finally got it to where the left barrel would shoot about 4 inches low and 4 to the left, but I was shooting at 75 yards. I now realize that this is a bit farther than most of these are zeroed/regulated. A friend asked what the factory had said to use. Since I had never thought of asking them myself I simply stated that I was going to go to them as a last resort if I could not get it regulated myself. Satisfied with myself with that answer I immediately looked for and found an e-mail address for the company and sent them a note. In my message I included the serial number of my gun and lo and behold, in a few weeks I received a message from a very nice lady at Pedersoli apologizing for taking so long to get back to me. She told me she had already mailed me the load data as well as the original target they had on file from when they shot it for regulation prior to sale. I realized upon receipt of the data and the target I was shooting too far and too heavy!! If I remember correctly without going down to dig it out of the safe that it was regulated with 300 (or 350) grain Winchester round nosed lead bullets , factory loads. When I tried them, whichever load it was, I was amazed that at 50 yards supported on a bench I could put two rounds just right of the center bullseye by about an inch or so with the left barrel firing second hitting about 1 inch low and to the right of the right barrel. I decided that I was satisfied with that!! Now, to find my shell vest and pith helmet and hit the fields with the hogs!! All said, a very nice rifle and much fun to shoot. (and fantasize about African safaris from the early days!!)
