[QUOTE="DRC458, post: 1599513, member: 530"] One of my best friends, God rest his soul, was shop foreman for Champlin until his untimely passing from an aneurism on the brain stem. He always had terrible headaches and I still think all of it stemmed from all of the big guns he shot. I have always loved double rifles, and he knew it. He tried to hook me up with one I could afford, but it never happened. I finally settled for the Spartan in .45-70 a couple years back. I'm satisfied with it, but it's nothing like the fine European doubles. If you had seen the time and effort he put into regulating those barrels and working up loads, you would have some understanding of the cost. That is AFTER all the time that went into the original build. The workmanship on a fine double rifle is something to behold. [/QUOTE]
