Cool mount! I want one! (And I did mean the wildebeest. I already have a redhead to deal with.) I'm fascinated by the very empty, vacant and spaced out expressions wildebeests seem to have on their faces all the time.

Seemed to be a fine shot. Too bad the ammo didn't perform as advertised!

Thank you!

If I were to be left to my own devices on my safari I'd be extremely aggravated at both my PH and outfitter. The money I am paying them is a direct reflection of the trust I have in them to keep me safe both physically and legally.

Good luck man. Told my lady I was buying a 375. She gifted me with a box of 357 ammo and I've never loved anyone more!

Happy to help, my friend. I personally have zero knowledge of microbes or how they infect us but I'm fortunate to be right next to a lady who does. Ask away!

I'm fortunate to live with a world-class immunologist (often keynote speaker at global health events) and as a side dish have several virologists in my social circle as well. I've been floating malaria questions to them recently among other stuff as I make my prep for next year. I'll ask about...

Thanks for sharing this great report! Lovely trophies as well. A bit off the beaten path for sure, which I like. Welcome to the world of hunting. A person who has never felt that rush of adrenaline, that hightening of the senses, that absolute focus and attention...they can't possibly understand.

Glad to hear from a pro on this. Is there anything a layperson could/ should do if bitten by a neurotoxic snake like a cobra or mamba? I mean apart from getting to an ER of course. I'll admit that contact with snakes in the bush concerns me a lot more than contact with our N American varieties...

Thanksmformthe tip about Superior Ammo! The gun will be new from CZ, so fingers crossed that it feeds well.

Well guys I checked out the rifle today and it's just beautiful. However, I've decided on the same model in .375 H&H and placed my order for it. .450 is just too much gun for me I think and I like the idea of only having to bring 1 rifle to hunt from plains game up to buffalo. Thanks again to...

@BWH Let me know!

@Shootist43 I've read that and am keeping it in mind. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks so much for this post. I can see the wisdom in it. I've already received several sterling recommendations and tons of contact from outfitters as well. It really is a situation of having the agony of choice!

Thanks bronco. I'm a big fan of CZ rifles in general. My 9.3 is a 550FS and I love it. But I do believe I'll keep this next aquisition at .416 or less.
