NEF/H&R double

Artist's conception of NEF double rifle/shotgun

I'm thinkin' .45-70, .500 S&W, 12 ga

I would buy one in just about any calibure but would prefer 45/70 or 243.

Sure would be cool to have a 45/70 double doubt they would do it, the cost to have the barrels regulated to same POI and be accurate is very prohibitive. I would surely like to see it made by an american company though.  I give very little business to foreign companies especially ones with inferior products.

HR could do a lot to just up its quality a little and ditch the plastics and hire a designer without breaking the bank or raising the cost too much.
That would be a lot more realistic than a double based on their action.

I know this is the centerfire forum, but how about a muzzleloader with .58 cal ball twist bbls. at about 1 in 90''?

Actually, that is a pretty good lookin' rifle!  Hmmm....wonder how heavy that bad boy would be?

Large bore centerfire would be nice too, 405 WCF, 45-70, whatever the caliber, I'd prefer a single trigger. And how about a hammer cocking piece on top that looks like a tang safety like some European custom doubles have? :wink:

I would love a double rifle in either 35 whelen or 358 winchester.  Both would make excellent bear rifles.  Maybe a 450 Marlin would be good too
