Inletting leaves a little to be desired or lot of wood shrinkage. Don't know anything about the gun so won't comment on accuracy.

One doesn't really need "1-Hole" accuracy to stop the charge of a Vicious Buck Hare, just the capability of Two very quick shots.

Seriously, I just don't really se the purpose of a Double .22RF. Personally I would only want to lay out really big dollars on a .22 if in need of a really super-accurate rifle for competition & I don't think a double would fill that bill.

I tend to agree wuth HJ here.

The recoil must be massive to necessitate a pad :^)

I have a client who had Galazan built him a double rifle in 22 Hornet. When I asked him why, he said he wanted to shoot armadillos on his ranch with it.

I guess it's just me, but I would love to spend a morning chasing tree rats with that thing.

I think there was something in an article about Michael McIntosh mentioning a 22rf double that CSMC built?

Ellis Brown, from Colorado made one up, very high class work..We were shooting another one of his built doubles in .450 when we switched to .22 one guy actually asked "did it go off?" Fun lil thing...Ellis wrote a book on building double rifles on shotgun actions, FYI

I'd love to have double .22. and a .30-06. and a .375 H&H..well, you get the point. If I had money to burn, it would be a fun thing to burn some on.
