Heym 89b 450/400

I don't have chrono numbers for Hornady factory ammo, but I could get the numbers next time I'm at the range.

I shoot Safari Arms ammo in my Heym 450/400 Double. 400 gr at 2150 fps. I've stopped 3 elephants with that rifle/ammo combo.

I use Safari Arms ammo in my Heym 458 Lott, and Heym 375 H&H. 458 ammo - 500 gr at 2200 fps.
375 ammo - 270 gr at 2800 fps.

So far, I've never had an issue with any of the rifles or ammo.

I read an older thread that mentioned you having some 9.3x64 brass. Do you still have some? I am looking for 100 pcs, maybe 200.
