Impala are the most mounted african game, like a whitetail here in the states
This Impala has both ear tips missing , I does get cold in Africa and they can be frost bit and loose the tip of an ear, This one lost both tips, about an inch on both sides.
Details ARE IMPORTANT. Notice the eye set, the shape the clean lines , then the EAR SET and where they are on most mounts , Most are too low and on the neck, ears attach to the skull not the neck !!! Then Rebuilt soft tissue nose not dried up and shrank. Look at mounts with a microscope of the quality . Very little taxidermy IS Created equal.

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
