Well guys it's here. I have to say it is everything I expected and more. I can't wait to get the front bead on a Cape Buffalo in August. I will try and post pics soon.
 
Congrats!!!

PICS!!!!! :)
 
It is great to see a new toy in the house.

Have you taken it to the range and fired a few test shots.

i would be interested in seeing a few picture of your new baby and a few shot targets to see how you performed.
 
Congratulations!

Not yet, am still waiting for the paperwork to come through from the local law. I am starting to panic as all the paperwork for the Cape Buffalo trip is needed very shortly and that was why I bought this rifle. I am now wondering if my Merkel 9.3x74 is going to be gun enough if I have to take it.
 
Just a quick pic of the new addition before it went off for licencing

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
