I'm not into them yet, have been looking for a couple years now. I want a 27" 16 ga. with a rifle caliber that is sufficient for white tails, the flip up sits suit me. I hunt New Brunswick and can just imagine one of those 250 lb bucks standing there watching me as I'm bird hunting. It's also a fitting gun to go with my versatile hunting dog..Deutsch Drahthaar

Yes, the scope is the mate to this gun. It even has its original leather case.

It's 16 x 16 (of course) over 9.3x72R. No maker's name, just a dealer's name on the rib.
It's a very petite gun. A joy to carry indeed ! The shotgun bores are pitted all to hell, but I'm a foolish sort & actually shoot it with RST ammo. Loading for the rifle is tough, as the bore slugs out to approx. 0.359 (not the 0.366 of the normalized cartridge dimensions.) One of these days (very soon) I'll get suitable loading dies (possibly 35 Whelen, with the 0.358 expander, and I'll only neck-size the cases). I've actually loaded 0.359 and 0.360 cast bullets from Montana Bullet Works (by hand, with a rubber mallet !!!! ...using properly sized cases that came with the gun) over a case full of 2F black powder, and it shot pretty good. (...considering the primitive/half-ass bullet seating method !). |

the 9.3x72 r is a very good round...i see a few on the gun broker ammo site every once in a while...ilike those hammer guns i had one in the same caliber as you had and foolishly traded it off.... charlie
