Have owned both a Chapuis in 9.3x74r and a Heym 88b in 375H&H and regret selling both. Of course I ALWAYS regret selling a gun shortly after doing so. I liked both guns very much and would have no qualms about using either on Dangerous game. The Heym was beautifully made and extremely accurate and the Chapuis was short light and a pleasure to carry. Kicked like a Missouri Mule to shoot and was down right unpleasant to me. Just absolutely too light to me. I have had and shot 2 Valmet O/u's in 9.3x74 and they were both quite pleasant to shoot. Just personal preference to me on either one. I would certainly buy another Chapuis but would certainly add some weight to it. I would do nothing to another Heym and it WOULD be in 375H&H.
