Hello everyone,

I seen a hippo mount that made me smile a while back on here and had to screenshot it. Has anyone seen one like this in person or had one done?

I was able to kill a nice hippo bull last year. I almost went with the glass table top idea that is seen here. In the end I decided that I am going to build a nice wooden table and have the hippo skull resting on top of the table so people can come up and get a good look at the tusks and skull. I think it will be more viewer friendly with this approach. I can always go back and do the glass too later if I decide I want to go that direction.

@Uintaelkhunter, would love to see how yours turns out when you get it back. Bet it will be awesome.
 
I just need to add the glass top waiting for it to haev a final resting place for it.

Hi Joshlee0518 (please let me know if you are fine being addressed like that),

Thought I would drop you a PM. It is super exciting to plan a hunt and we are more than happy to assist you. Have you given any thought yet to which species you would like to take?

What do you hunt usually and which weapons/calibers are you using?

Look forward to swapping experiences and ideas.

Happy hunting - Daniel

Is this rifle sold? If not what is the weight of it and do you know if there is enough difference in diameter between the 35W and the 9.3 to allow for a rebore to a 9.3x62 which is what I am after?
Thanks,
