I use to work with a buddy & his father selling Double Rifles & Dangerous Game Rifles. The old man always had me sight in his gun. Shooting a big bore from a bench is brutal & best done @ a standing bench which you seldom ever see, especially @ my gun club. Shot a lot of .500 Nitro Express doubles.

The old man ordered in a Heym Jumbo in .600 Nitro Express. I told him I hope that wasn't one of his personal guns as I really didn't want to sight it in for him.
