double the columns in vim on vertical split

I use set columns=80 in ~/.gvimrc . This works great when I open a single file in gvim. However, if I do a vertical split to open another file, I want the new gvim window size to be 160 columns so that each file has 80 columns dedicated for it.

Currently, the size of gvim windows stays the same even after vertical split which allocates 40 columns to each file. Since this is too small, I will then have to manually maximize the window.

Any suggestions on how to automatically double the number of columns after a :vs?
