Double Rifle regulation.
Double rifles are not necessarily regulated to converge.
Personally I would prefer them to be regulated to shoot PARALLEL to each other and NOT to converge.
Regulating the barrels to shoot parallel allows the rifle to be shot at ALL ranges instead of being limited to some distance beyond the "converging" range. At all ranges the left barrel would shoot all shots into one group and the right barrel would shoot all shots into another group 1.5 to 2" to the right.
Remember, as range increases even a rifle regulated to shoot parallel would APPEAR to be regulated to converge but this is due to the increase in group size and not from shots actually converging and then diverging at some set range.
But, realisticly you would not be shooting a double rifle at very long ranges anyway.
