Looking for Cape Buffalo mount ideas

That’s it, except mine has a little habitat around the base of the horn. If I ever mount another buffalo I’m going to mount it the same way but turned the opposite way as book ends to a table.
My buddy makes these bases. My rusty brain is thinking now. If your taxidermist will sell me the “horn”, I am thinking about having my friend make me a 30” or so Africa out of 1” plate.

Guys, what material is the “Horn” made from?? Resin?
 
Yes, I believe it’s made of a resin/styrofoam with a square metal tube for support and to hold the tube coming out of the mount. But it’s been 10 years and the Wildlife Gallery delivered it to my door and set it up for me so I didn’t have much to do with it then. The base is on coasters so it’s easy to relocate if so desired.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
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!
