I got one of the 1st group of 45-70 SBS that came into the country... it's OK, not super nice, but is a SBS double... I had no trouble getting it to regulate both barrels with the jack screw adjustment they use on their guns... the gun can't take full pressure "hot" loads like my guide gun, but with a solid mid range load, I can get minute of dinner plate groups at 75 yards with both barrels, & in all honesty I haven't finished dialing it in... I expect I can tighten that up by 1/2... don't expect it'll be a 200 yard rifle, but should be a fine shooter at 75 yards
