This pic was taken this past June in Limpopo. I had shot a SCI Gold Red Hartebeest that morning. A couple hours later my buddy shot his Golden Wildebeest. Well my Hartebeest was still on the truck and my buddy had the idea of having my hartebeest taken off the trick and doing some photos of the 2 together. My first thought was that his GW would dwarf my RH as they are much bigger animals. But this RH was so impressive, I think he held his own. 25 1/8 inches on the left, 25 inches on the right with 10 1/2 inch bases.

Awesome animals! The wildebeest is very impressive
 
Great picture and I agree that red hartebeest is not only holding his own but by far the better trophy!

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!
