As Craig Boddington said "The PH fraternity is a lesser place without him". Sad day indeed.
 
I did not know Ian, but I had met him on occasion and seen him in many videos. A fine PH and by all accounts a gentleman. My condolences to his family. A tragedy.
 
A very sad day. I'm sure his Chifuti family will send an update to us on a fund for his family to which we can donate. They put themselves on the line for us in so many ways. Making a contribution to help the family will at least be some way to show our appreciation. My condolences to all those who knew and cared for Ian.
 
Damn.....very sad for his family and all who knew and loved him.
 
A very sad tragedy, my thoughts and prayers to Ian's family and friends.

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
