I hope to try again in the near future.

I am 0 for 2 on my third hunt I wasn't hunting for leopard and saw three in the middle of the day and one laid under our hyena bait for over an hour.

I have had three hunts and on hunt #1 in Zimbabwe the PH carried a Ruger M77 458 WM on hunt #2 in Zimbabwe the first PH carried either a Ruger M77 RSM in 458 Lott or an English made 470 double with a red dot sight depending on what we were tracking the second PH that I hunted with for a couple...

I've been on three safaris in which One was a complete mess one was decent but had some things happen that I would never hunt with them again and one in Zambia that was great the other two was in Zimbabwe.I would like to have done hunt reports to warn people but this thread reminds me of why I...

I picked one up recently in 6.5 creedmore which is not my caliber of choice but it was a pretty good deal.I'm going to try it out and see how I like it before buying any new barrels for it.I talked to Beretta USA and they told me the 223 barrels will be out soon and others to follow and that...

Here is a better pic also previous to the original post is one with my hyena.

Probably my favorite rifle a 416 Remington by Gene Simillion.It has a drop box magazine and a VX6 Leupold.I've used it on two safaris and hopefully many more.It is a pre 64 with a stainless barrel and a stainless finish on the action.

I can't believe this hasn't sold.I have not seen any RSM's at this price point in any caliber.I have two of these and I sure wouldn't sell either that cheap.

My 416 has a 1x6 VX6 Leupold on it and has served me very well on two safaris and a lot of practice shooting.I also have a V4 Zeiss 1x4 and a V6 1x6 that I really like but the Leupold is hard to beat for the price.I'm not sure Zeiss still makes the V4 1x4 anymore.

Cabelas in Wheeling WV just put one on GI this morning.It has a laminated stock so that would be a plus for Alaska.

I called about the 470 as soon as they opened this morning and as usual they say it sold yesterday even though it came out on GI as new today.

I too have hunted with Johnny DuPlooy and was my best hunt to date.They really know how to take care of their clients.I have also heard very good things on their new concession.

Here is a pic of it.I think he set it up in a press and the hole through the cylinder steps down.I've never thought to try it as Hawk bullets has proper bullets for the rifle should I decide to use it.

For you south paws out there....Cabelas in Buda Texas has a Montana rifle co. 375 H&H for $1499.

I've used Barnes TSX 400 grain in my 416 and shot everything from buffalo to hyena with perfect results.

If they had a 300 win with a 375 H&H extra barrel and wood stock I would already have one.

Have you looked at NECG they have some on their site that may work or could be made to work.

What I've found out so far is Cabelas had a limited edition of rifles made with this kind of embellishment.The RSM in 375 had a lion the 416 had a buffalo and the 458 Lott had the elephant.

I bought a stock from @Lance Hopper and everything was first class,communication, packing and shipping.

This one is a work horse but not a bubba.Built by Gene Simillion and works flawlessly.It is a 416 RM and is the only rifle I took on my last hunt for game large and small.

This one does too.

If someone buys it they may be interested in your sight if you would want to sell it.

Up for sale is a Westley Richards Martini in 303 British.It has a 27" barrel 14.5" LOP and weighs 7.25 lb.It is in nice shape as the pics will show.The bore is very good.The only faults I can find with this rifle is that over the years someone replaced the sights and the barrel has been...

Ralf Martini could restock it for you but it would be expensive but also beautiful.

I think that is the nicest wood I've seen on one of these....Nice!

I just wear a ball cap if anything at all.

I sent an email to them although they just sell accessories now I'm hoping they still may have records.

I'm not sure what area of Zambia you will be in but in 2021 I hunted Chifunda GMA and my cell phone had good service about all the time.I have T mobile and the rates were 25 cents a minute.

You can trust @dogcat1 as I have done a couple deals with him on another site and all was first class.

No other proof marks that I can find......Thank you for the information.

One of the top.

It is a beautiful shotgun,the LEG proof I think is Belgium.The NON POUR BALLE is (not for ball) The rest I can't find anywhere.

It has 31 1/2" barrels that I would think are Damascus but have been blued.

I recently traded for a shotgun that I would like to find more information on like date of manufacture and anything else that someone can tell me.It is a Gastinne Renette 10 gauge hammer gun and seem of very high quality.Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Found one....Thanks Lance!

I've been with cor vens for several years and have been very happen with them.It covers travel and shipping incidents as well as theft and so forth.

I don't wear them often and never to hunt in but my favorite most comfortable boot has been Justin ostrich ropers.I've had Tony Lama calf skin and Dan Post calf skin but just like the Justins better.Perfect fit and no break in.

I would shoot both and decide from there.If eland is on the menu it would be 150 gr. Barnes for me and be very particular with shot choice.

30-06 has the best assortment of rifles and ammunition by far.It's a boring cartridge as it is so common but there is a reason for that....it is that good.

I've used nothing but Merrill Moabs and tag gaiters for several years.They are just really comfortable and fit me perfect.I'm sure there are other great boots I could use but if it's not broke don't fix it.

This would be a great gun for practice using a double rifle!

I use a 1x6 Leupold and leave it on 1x until I'm on the sticks and If there is enough distance and time crank it up to 6x although 1x is really enough for any realistic range on buffalo.
