Voere o/u

Cooperpuddle
I recently bought a used Voere, double o/u, 20 ga./.222 cal, built to shoot left-handed. I need a scope, something relatively short range, for small game. There is the name "Flaig.ace" on the scope base. I am not familiar with either Voere or Flaig.ace; the gun really seems to be well made. Anyone have experience with a similar gun?

    I have no experience with that model but I do with other European combination guns. First off, try to select a return to zero detachable mount or the shotgun use is severely restricted with the scope on permanently. Also if possible the mount has see thru provision to use iron sights. All this will let your extract the full potential from a combination firearm. I am sure there is a mount that is common to your gun.
    Next watch your scope selection in regards to eye relief. Many combination guns require the scope to slide further back or allow a greater eye relief. This is due to the position of the triggers and the grip in relation to the action. Scopes with out a forward bell allow you to slide the scope back further with both rings forward of the adjustment turret. Vintage Weaver k10's due to their long length also allow you to slide them back, and are excellent for varmint work.
    Perhaps someone here has 1st hand experience with your gun.
    Feel free to ask about rifle barrel regulation if your not familiar with this feature. Hope I helped.

    Voere is a well know European manufacturer of high quality sporting arms. The business was originally started in Germany in the 50's then moved to Austria in the 70's. You can figure out the country of origin and date of manufacture by the proof marks.

    Flaig was a U.S. manufacturer/importer of various shooting products. They were located, I believe In Penn. Been out of business for years.

    I dont have the same Combo gun you do but I suggest something like a 1.5 X 4 variable or even a 2 x 7 variable scope . I hunt with a Valmet 243/12Ga. and have shot turkeys on the wing with scope set on 2X. takes some practice and BOTH eyes open. Flaigs was a GREAT SHOP in a LOG CABIN on a hill in PITTSBURG. Pa.
