Record Buffalo Hunted in Benin

My friend from Benin, Patrick Martin sent me the picture of the biggest buffalo shot since 1974!!!!!! 36 inch wide, should be the new number 1 SCI and Rowland Ward.

A beautiful old bull with nice worn down horns, amazing because after 9 years of hard hunting there the biggest I shot was 32 inch.

Stunning old bull, Christophe. Congrats to your friend Patrick and thanks for sharing images of this old warrior.
 
Terrific old bull!
 
A nice one.
Congratulations.

Wow, what an incredible trophy Christophe!
 
Just look at the battle scars of this old bull...anyone looking would be envious...great job...
 
As you can see in this close up, his right eye is very swollen and from the gash in his right brow bone, it seems that he received a big blow there, most probably while fighting... surely an old warrior!

I'd rather take this old bull than a "green" boss measuring 40". This is a real trophy... a beauty! You can be a very happy chappie. Congrats!
 
There's a rumor your guys ran it down with a truck...

J/K nice old bull and definitely a real trophy due to the age and character. What were you shooting (cartridge info)?

I don't know I was not there. How do you know that? Can you explain?
Thanks

Hi Joshlee0518 (please let me know if you are fine being addressed like that),

Thought I would drop you a PM. It is super exciting to plan a hunt and we are more than happy to assist you. Have you given any thought yet to which species you would like to take?

What do you hunt usually and which weapons/calibers are you using?

Look forward to swapping experiences and ideas.

Happy hunting - Daniel
Our trophy shed is filling up and we are only getting started,

Is this rifle sold? If not what is the weight of it and do you know if there is enough difference in diameter between the 35W and the 9.3 to allow for a rebore to a 9.3x62 which is what I am after?
Thanks,
Gary (Just down the road in Springfield)
