I heartily recommend that you check yours to see if it will double.

Enjoy your 8 bore.
I havnt had it happen yet , but it does have some really heavy trigger pull probably the heaviest I have felt on a sxs . I was comparing the hammers and trigger pull on the muzzleloading sxs 10 gauge I have . I noticed the half cock on it will still bring the hammers down on the nipple with alot of force . I dont shoot the muzzleloader however , I had plans to have some work done to it but never did .

Im thinking of loading the 8 gauge up with some larger shot for coyotes .
