Double Rifle cases- what do you prefer and why?

[eeleater]

For a long time I used various soft cases and one of the less expensive Doskocil hard sided cases (13" x 50") which would hold two guns.  As I got more involved with silhouette I wanted more protection for the gun and got one of the SKB double rifle cases (50" x 9.5" x 6" weight 20 lb)where you have one gun on top of the other with foam inbetween.  All was well ...and then I got a hunter gun- and started shooting a match air rifle also.  While the SKB case will hold two guns- it seems the one you want is always on the bottom.  So I got another case- this one a Doskocil All Weather Double Rifle case (51.5" x 12.5").  It has a middle foam piece you can cut to the outline of your guns- and can buy replacement foam at a reasonable price.  All seemsed good until I actually tried to put two SILLHOUETTE rifles in.  Hunting guns would have not been a problem.  High scope mounts, long scopes with sunshields and target turrets were just a bit too much.

So the search has continued.  I have considered the SKB quad case (50" x 14.5" x 6")- but not sure if it will have the same problem with two guns on the same level.  SKB also makes the " 2SKB-5216 ATA Double Rifle Case" (52" x 16" x 6"), which is slightly larger- but comes with the cut outs already made, and it does not look like it would work with a long scope /sunshield combination.

Pelican has the 1750 (50.62"L x 13.50"W) which you can get with the foam uncut.  It weights 28 lb.

What are others using and why?  What are you likes/dislikes about them?

I have one of the ICC type cases and (2) of the SKB doubles mentioned. I mainly transport my rifle in the ICC type (not sure of brand) and store some extra rifles/stocks and etc. in the SKB's in my gun room. The ICC case is great because of the memory foam and the lack of a need to "cut out" a place for your rifle / accessories. The case closes HARD and secures all things inside exactly where you have placed them. They are thin and travel well. If you did something to damage the contents, you have bigger issuies than a broken stock...LOL

Check out Starlight rifle cases.  I have two of their double rifle cases and really like them.  Last year at Sam's Club these cases were being sold for 75.00 bucks which was a steal of a deal.  I have one case with the wheels and one without.  I would opt for the model with the wheels as it makes carrying your gear a little easier.

        I have a Pelican Double rifle case. It holds my FWB P70 and my 1712 both with target scopes easily. The case is heavy and expensive but it is a small price compared to replacing rifles,scopes,etc. I would have a look at one as they also have a lifetime guarantee. Worth the money

Slammer,

I also have an SKB double rifle case (50" x 9.5" x 6" ). I've had it for over 7 years and has survived 2 trips to South Africa, keeping my precious toys (.375 and .338 Model 70's) in perfect condition.

I did have to replace the carrying handle, which was cut in two somewhere betweeen the Johannesburg and Atlanta airports back in 2000. The wheels and carry handle at the ends of the case really came in handy.

I will keep it till death do us part.
