Chapuis Armes Iphisi 357 H&H Magnum
*Dangerous Game Double Rifle*
Description:
Up for sale we have a beautiful Chapuis Armes Iphisi (isiZulu for "big game hunter") Chambered in 375 H&H Mag and regulated with 300 GR Hornady Factory loads. Below you will find a description and my personal opinions.
AT FIRST GLANCE
At 9.9 pounds this nestles very nicely into the hands. The pistol grip design and the full beavertail for end really give you a place to get a good hold. This comes to the shoulder very nicely. I have had a few other Double rifle lines in the last few years and the Iphisi stands out from the others. You would have to spend thousands more just to get the standard options found on the Iphisi. This is a feature packed rifle. The fact that it is easy to mount a scope on, is a major selling point. All you need is a set of Tally rings not an expensive mount from a faraway land. The 26" barrels are regulated for the popular 300-gr Hornady DGX load, but thanks to Chapuis' patented regulating mechanism, they can be tuned by a competent gunsmith for the load of your choice. This is a big deal usually you stick with one bullet and weight and once that works you use it, and it doesn’t matter if you want to or not. By leaving the wedge proud it changes the game now you and a competent gun smith can custom create a load with those old Woodleigh Weldcore Soft Nose bullets.
MY TAKE ON THIS LINE
Most double rifle aficionados think Italian or English when you think fine gun. Well, that is not the case here. The French might not be well known in the US market for their production of fine sporting arms; however, they should be. Chapuis is—and has always been a brand known throughout Europe for producing fine guns. Chapuis prides itself in being an all-French brand: all stages of manufacturing and finishing are carefully and lovingly executed in our St.-Bonnet-Le-Château facility, resulting in some of the most strikingly beautiful hunting guns you will ever see. When it comes to premium-level aesthetics and sophistication, very few nations in history have been able to rival France’s reputation for excellence. If you are looking for something different, here it is. I am extremely excited to offer Chapius rifles & shotguns to my clients.
