@Tom Leoni You're the best person to ask a couple of questions to: 1) What brand of ammunition are the Chapuis .470 Nitro Express double rifles regulated for ? 2) Does the Chapuis warranty cover monolithic solid bullets being used in them (like Barnes Banded Solids) ?

Weren’t they having the bullets for their factory loaded ammunition made by Woodleigh ?

That’s one inspiring bag !

Yes, it is. It would be an relatively poor choice for body shots on the big bulls. But a properly constructed 9.3mm solid (such as the 280Gr Cutting Edge Bullets flat nosed monolithic brass Safari Solid) traveling at a velocity of 2360 FPS can safely down an elephant with a brain shot from any...

I’m partial to wild blueberry pies. The ones baked by my daughter are my favorite, esp. with a nice dollop of vanilla ice cream on top.

Not a stopper, no.

Pre ‘64 Winchester Model 70. Those extra rounds are a big life saver. Plus, I’ve been really successful with them.

Old world beauty. Hold on to that one. It’s a keeper for sure. Do you also have the enbloc clips for the rifle ? Otherwise the weapon unfortunately becomes a single shot.

Match made in heaven !

You own a magnificent piece of history. They also owned a .505 Gibbs built by John Rigby & Co. I wonder what became of that one.

Bruce isn’t making brass, anymore ?
