Billll @ Billlls Idle Mind took some photos of a friends’ 2-bore rifle.
More photos and load info here.
Later in the week I will be posting a heap of 2 Bore photos I have gotten from a gun maker who specializes in big bore rifles.
Steve,
Thanks for this post. A very interesting underhammer design. I read about a gunmaker who made bore caliber underhammers which used two percussion caps to ignite the large charges some time ago but can’t think of the name at the moment.
I shall look forward to the entry about the other 2 bore rifle that you’re tempting us with, ha ha! Hope the gentleman in question also makes other guns that he sends you details of. Thanks in advance and good hunting!
