Hunting the Mountain Reedbuck...

As a first time hunter in SA I didn't really know anything about them- or the Common Reedbuck or Limpopo bushbuck. When I become a second time hunter those three are likely going to be my top three. I only hope for a chance at one in the same league as these!
 
Very nice mtn. Reedbuck, I saw quite a few while I was hunting vallies last August. They are on my hit list along with klipsringer on my next trip to SA. Their face is quite similar to a vallie. Anyone agree?
 
Gus, you made it into Rowland. Very nice trophy. Congratulations.
 
This is the one I hunted last week, no idea about measurements

Wonderful @Nyati, Well done!

Regardless of length, they look great though, they are a great animal to hunt and eat. I hope you got some chance to taste it. If not, you can always come back and taste it next time.

Wow. As my Zim friends say, that’s a snorter!

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
