Where, may I ask, would you be buying the Italian double rifle, and what Italian maker would it come from, do you know? Can you point me to a website where the Italian double would be available, for you Canadians?

I don't know anything about Fairs but I have a Chapuis in 9.3x74r and I love it. I ordered it with a 16.25 lop and a1-6x24 Leupold vx 6 illuminated in QR rings. I love it and it shoots great 1.25 4 shot groups at 100m. It Lso has a set of 7x65r barrels that so far shoot like total crap but I'm still trying to work up a load for it.

Overall I'm very happy with this new one and my 450-400 3" as well.

--------------------
450-400, 9.3x74r and 7x65r.

Another vote for the Chapuis. I also Love my UGEX 9.3x74R and I think there are more gunsmiths around to handle that brand over the FAIR ?
