I fell in love with double rifles with a nice little Chapuis 9.3x74. It is a nice cartridge but if i were to go double gunning again, and I might, i would jump at another Chapuis (or Searcy) but would love it in the 375 FL. In fact there is a Searcy in the Dundee, Mich. cabelas, in the 375 --even left handed, but at ~ 16 k ( ouch). Ive taken some game withe the 9.3 but it won't quite run with the 375. But that's not damning with faint praise either. On the other hand, both of these would arguably prove more flexible in the Americas than the 450/400 3" or 3.5" NE, which is kind of the next step up.
Theoretically, the Blaser S2s barrels are not soldered and could be regulated for a warmer load in the 375 Fl equaling the H & H but I do not care for it at all as a DG gun because of some of its features including a barrel shroud over extractors only.
Actually, for the hunting I do, a proper bolt gun is far more practical but not even half as much fun to look at.
