Your Thoughts on "Heym"

Went with @Kevin Peacocke to Andrew Tonkin today....well I can just say the meeting was brief but the Heym 89B is a masterpiece of practical and efficient design....problem is when you pick it up you don't want to put it down....absolutely the best doubles available here.

Now to get organized and get the tom sorted out....
3 barrel set is my dream
500NE
375 Flanged Magnum
20ga or 12ga

Andrew will see if they can supply a 12ga on the Gross action otherwise it will be a 20ga on an African action....
I might add my eyes kept going back to the 135lb(I am sure that's what he said), 20 and a half inch lip set of elephant tusks.....
Our meeting was a bit short but Andrew had a personal problem to attend to.

Forget about selling Heym doubles, Andrew could charge people to just come and fondle those things.

Although the action is wider, the firing pin centers aren't far enough apart for the 12ga.

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
