I have been thinking on adding a double rifle to my collection.
Which is better/ an over and under, or side by side?
Im looking into the blazer line, or maybe a kreighoff, 30/06 is what im buying.
Also, I have 2 colt sharps single shots and am looking for a similar single rifle with nice wood, has anyone had an expierence with the rugers or browning single shots?

The O/U is theoretically stronger with the bottom barrel buried in the receiver and has been claimed to be easier for the maker to regulate. I think it looks less funky when scoped.
I have a Browning (now under Winchester trademark) 1885 BPCR .40-65 that is a great shooter. You are going to have to shop around for good wood, though; many of the Brownings (and Rugers) I have seen were pretty plain. If you want nice wood, order a Shiloh Sharps with stock wood and finish upgrades.
Why not pick up another CS?? What caliber are you looking for, 06 as well? Ruger #1 won't come close to the CS.
