azpackhorse Report post Posted September 22, 2011 That would be cool, I am considering using one of my old lever guns this year and now that I finally broke down and got some spectacles I can see the iron sights! Good luck with the double and good looking rifle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azmetalman Report post Posted September 22, 2011 ruff country I admire your approach. It is interesting to me since I am going through a similar phase. I have been hunting the Gray Ghost in Arizona since 1959 and taken bucks with various centerfire rifles with open sights, peep sights and scopes. My next quest is archery and/or my 7 x 30 Waters TC Contender which is scoped. Now you have given me yet another idea. Thanks!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

youngbuck Report post Posted September 23, 2011 That would make a cool hero pic. Best of luck! I've wanted to use my old man's win m94 trapper on a Coues hunt. I'll need to leave my other rifles at home, because it never makes it up on the hill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WalkingW Report post Posted September 27, 2011 Wow that is a nice looking rifle!! I think it would be a hoot to hunt with. Did you get it to regulate good yet I know that they can be fun to get both barrels hitting the same spot. Funner yet with black powder loads. I think you will find it real enjoyable to hunt with. I have hunted with my old original muzzleloader from 1854 for years now and have taken tons of game with it. I wish you as much luck with your double as I have had with my muzzleloader. Keep it about the hunt not the kill and all hunts will be a success. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruffcountry Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Thanks for all the kind comments from all . I've been testing some different loads and I think I might be on to something with this one This was six shots this afternoon with 232 gr. norma vulkan at 110 yds . The scope is my old Leupold M8-4X made before 1974 . I know this group may not impress some of the shooters on this site but you gotta keep in mind that I'm dealin with 2 barrels and 2 triggers and this group was shot starting with clean barrels .
