Have always admired double rifles but mostly out of price range. So a year ago I bought a Biakal 45-70 as I had a number of other 45-70s. It has been a fun gun and use it for deer hunting. May be someday I'll get a good one. That's if I quit by SxS shotguns.

my first sxs rifle is a 45-70 pedersoli colt copy one of the first out under the name texas trails love it. later a lefever in 30-40 krag with lined barrels then the j. p. sauer hammer gun in .43 spanish (im always looking)i hunt with all of them

Ian I'm there with the eyes. The gun looks like a drilling to me but, I saved the photo from a thread about bad eyes and what the owner of this gun did to remedy the situation. I have found that the British wide shallow vee rear is much better than anything with a notch or a narrow vee. I just picked up my Simson 405 double and will have to try it on the range before I make changes.
