He went to the "Great Bushveld in the Sky" on August 21, 2021.

I finally got him home yesterday.

I know folks have ask about measurements on the forum several times, so I thought this might be good for future reference.

Overall width - 42" (I think the taxidermist may have helped me a little...)
Width of base - 25"
Height of base - 37"
Distance from base to nose - 43"
Weight - 58 lbs.
 
Nice buff and mount. Anyone thinking of a shouldered buff mount should budget 4’x4’x4’ to accommodate the desired space. I’m still sitting on a cape until my wife can decided where she’d like it…might be a while
 
Very nice (y)
 
Also a 42 though not such deep curls. A pedestal is also a good option for such a big taxidermy challenge. Though the dogs have never trusted the thing lurking in the corner.

At Kalahari Safari, the Small Things Are the Big Things
The thrill of the stalk. The stillness of the wait. The age-old rhythm of the hunt.
It’s not just about the size of the trophy. It’s about the stories that will be told for years.
We believe the memories are the true prize. The small things are the big things.
And we’re proud to offer a hunting experience that honours exactly that.

Not sure your price range. Have a 375 H&H with a muzzle brake. Nice rifle only fired a few times. Also a Mossberg 375 Ruger its been used and shows a few hunts on it.
