Drillings, Double Rifles, and Rifles

Click for more photos $3600 CONTACT Alternate Pictures	Merkel combo in 12g. over 6.5x57R - one of my favorite deer cartridges! Category: Drillings, Double Rifles, and Rifles Gauge: 12 gauge	GunID: 2611 Serial: 58925
	Proofed in August of 1963 this well made gun has excellent bores and is very tight. The double under bite lockup also has the double Kirsten barrel extensions that Merkel is famous for on its higher grade guns. The 6.5x57R round is one of my favorites as it is low recoil and fast and accurate. Based on the 8mm Mauser case this round can be purchased or easily reloaded. It is similar to the 257 Roberts but was invented by the Germans at least 20 years earlier!

	Hartmann & Weiss is considered by most of us in the trade to be one if not "The finest" gun makers in the world. We have confirmation from them that they did indeed did scope and regulate this rifle. This documentation will go with the rifle. Note the super bright and crystal clear Zeiss Varipoint V 2.5-10x50 scope which is in like new condition. I believe this was over a $2000.00 scope.

	Nice bore on this wonderful little English rifle. We emailed Purdey's and and they said Woodward sold these rifles but had them made in the English trade. They believe Rigby was the likely maker of this rifle. The scope bases are German EAW's current manufacturer so rings are only a phone call away!

	To quote Cartridges of the World concerning the .318 ~ "Developed by Westley Richards in 1910 it was known to be one of the most popular medium bore cartridges in Africa, even after the advent of the 375 H&H Magnum." The load data on the side of the action says: Cordite 37-250 Max and DuPont 48-250 Max. I love the selection of safari fold up sights out to 500 yards! The bore is very good for a rifle of this vintage with strong rifling.

	This gun has seen use but still has lots of life left in it. The shotgun bores have a little frosting but are basically bright and the rifle bore is bright with strong rifling. This is a very functional drilling at a price where one can afford to hunt with it.

	This rifle shows honest field use with a good number of handling marks with minor cosmetic ware and tear. Undoubtedly from years of hunting red stag in the Scottish Highlands. I have been there and honestly it is very rough, rocky and steep. The weather there is not what one would call like paradise. It is obvious the owner did know how important bore care was as the bore is quite nice and bright with sharp rifling. If you like a rifle that shows its patina of history while still being highly effective in the field this could be the rifle for you! John Dickson is a highly esteemed gunmaker famous for the building of the elegant and classic round action double guns.
