My good friend Gerhardo Steenekamp, owner of Elansbosch Safaris in the Limpopo, has sent me this picture of a 43 3/8 Eland.

It was shot by a spanish hunter, using a 9.3x62, and should rank in the top five.

That's a nice eland! Brian
 
That is a big animal. Wonder what a big eland like that weights on the hoof?
 
That is a very nice eland. I hope I can get one in 2014.
 
Thanks for posting this.

This guy still had some room to grow if you can fathom that.
He still had brown shoulders (at least from this picture)

Congrats to the successful hunter.
 
what a whopper....:cool:
 
What an incredible eland! Congrats to the very fortunate hunter.

Hello,

I saw your post selling left hand rifles. Do you have any additional pics of the .416 Rem mag?

Thank you.

Hello, I saw your post selling left hand rifles. Do you have any other left hand rifles you may let go of? Also can you send a few additional pics of Borden rifle?

Thank you.
