Thanks for the info. I have both the a 375 and a 9.3 in bolt actions and you are right about that. Both are great however. Hopefully I win the lotto this week and I can buy one of each.
Does anyone know what most 375 doubles rifles are regulated for? What grain bullet?
I prefer rimmed cartridges in DRs so I went with one of the barrel sets in .375 flanged mag. 300 grain TSX clock at 2450 fps out of one barrel and about 30fps slower out of the other barrel. Very nicely regulated at 50 yards and I am comfortable with it out much further with a 3 MOA RMR riding proudly atop the rib!!
The DR thing is HIGHLY addictive once you get your head and wallet around the entry fee!!! It's not for everyone though. These are balls on hunting rifles and the paradigm is very different from the tac driving bolt rifles many have become spoiled with. Target rifles they ain't although individual barrels can perform very well indeed.
Oh, and yes!!! Forgot to mention that Prophet River had a good supply of quality .375 FL Mag brass in stock that is now keeping my baby shooting!! Good Norma brass and at a reasonable price too!!

Has anyone heard of dealers in western Canada stocking these shotguns....looking for a k80 pro sporter
I would consider a Kriegoff Big 5 Double Rifle as I've heard they are one of the more affordable European options.
How do they compare pricewise to Heym, Merkel or someone like Chapuis?
.338 is where the fun starts.

I dont think they became a kreighoff dealer.
