Re: 9.3 X 74R Double Rifle

I am fortunate enough to have acquired a Chapuis in scoped 9.3x74R with a set of 20 gauge barrels. Lovely combination. Does a fine job on white tails. Great setup for quail, chukkar and pheasant. Pig hunting with it this coming weekend in Texas. Going to take it to RSA as the second gun for plains game in May.

Expect it to be perfect for the appointed task. Would not take it for dangerous game ... would be much more comfortable with the usual DG equipment (.375 H&H, .416 Rigby, or a .470 NE double rifle).

No magic here, but a great (if expensive) choice for reasoned use.
