From what I saw at the Vintage Cup, watching all day, the big cartridges are good for a few shots that's all. Guys that shot well one time fell way off 2nd and third go.

There is a VH receiver and stock on sale now on guns international for $600.That could be a good start to a rifle project.

Putting rifle barrels on double shotgun actions can work well or not at all depending on the action and the rifle caliber. I put a set of 30-40 Krag barrels on a SKB 20 gauge action and it didn't work out. The action would try to spring open when fired. I didn't discover it until I was down to final regulation and putting the ribs on. It was a waste of time and money.
If you're serious about trying to put a set of rifle barrels on a Parker action I would get in touch with Ellis Brown : www.ellisbrowncustomshop.com or ellis450@hotmail.com. He literately wrote the book and taught classes on "Building Double Rifles on Shotgun Actions". He's a super nice very helpful guy. He can tell you how to select an action for such a conversion. And he of course does that type of work. I love double's whether smooth or rifled and have looked at and considered buying a double in 405. I don't need one but I would sure enjoy one.

Today, it would be a no brainer, to have the gun bored and sleeved, and with the original cartridge too. A real shame. So many of the old Rook rifles were spoiled this way. |

600.00 is to much of an investment especially when you don't get the barrels and forearm to start a double rifle project. Parkers are not the best choice for a double rifle in any smoke less caliber.
