Yes, a nice walk-around DR with enough bullet weight to "get 'er done". | |||

That is a nice rifle at a very attractive price. DRSS | |||

Will it be available in the 470 nitro? | |||

IIRC 470 has been a standard at Chapuis for a long time. NRA Life ASSRA Life DRSS Today's Quote: Give a man a fish and he eats for a day.

Yes, there's a nice 470 Chapuis on Guns International for $9,850 IIRC. | |||

Dave, that's a looker, for sure! Bailey's making me a 375 Flanged to go with the 500 NE as a matched set. Can't wait. | |||

If you'd lose a couple wouldn't that balance it out? NRA Life ASSRA Life DRSS Today's Quote: Give a man a fish and he eats for a day.

Is that gun built on a 450 to 500 sized frame? Mac | |||

Has Chapuis always made a double in .450-400? I recall from talking to the guy at the Chapuis booth at SCI the past 2 years that they weren't chambering in that yet but were thinking about it. | |||

I tried to resist......I managed to do so for 10 days but, then I called JJ and he made it so easy. I now have one on order made to my dimensions......  Cliff NRA Life Member CMP Distinguished Rifleman NRA Master, Short and Long Range | |||

Congratulations she is a real beauty, you are lucky I didn't have a spare 10,000 when I looked at it on the 2nd and 3rd at SCI.Have fun with her. Bill DRSS | |||

I would be interested in one, especially since they are making the barrels a bit longer than most, and the gun a reasonable weight. Anybody else selling these?

JJ Perodeau is a Chapuis distributor. You can deal directly with him. | |||

One of Us |
I hefted this .450/400 several times at SCI. It sure pointed nice and JJ is right, it is a lot of double for the money. I have the Chapuis .470 and I can attest, it is a nice gun. Goes bang every time I pull the trigger and if I do my part the bullets go where they're supposed to. | |||

There are other dealers as well, Dale Nygaard at Heirloom Armes and Kebco's son also IIRC. Show around some. NRA Life ASSRA Life DRSS Today's Quote: Give a man a fish and he eats for a day.

When I ordered my Chapuis 30R UGEX about two months ago NOBODY else could or would beat the terms and price offered to me by Dale Nygaard. My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost. | |||
