gunsmith thought I should have something different than DGRs, so I ended up with this...
The scope is an original Unertl 16x with adjustable parallax. Kinda like sighting thru a straw:)
But when that gets old, it has an original Redfield aperture sight with Globe front sight.
Not quite a plains game getup...

Awesome. I would love a Pre-64 built similarly to somewhat resemble the rifle Carlos Hathcock used during his 66 tour.
 
There a lot of fine shotguns out there that are now jealous of the fine piece of wood on that rifle.
 
After reading about Carlos Hathcock, I always wanted to try shooting such rifle, with unertl scope.
Beautiful rifle.

Good morning,
Did you hunt w Leeuwkop at their ranch or in Zimbabwe? The ranch looks awesome, but I'll be in Zimbabwe for buffalo and whatever else we dig up.
What did you hunt for?
Vaccines?
What rifle did you use?
I feel like I need a good cotton safari shirt and an ammo belt to make the hunt feel right!
How often did you shoot prior to going?
Did you use sticks for shooting practice?
