It’s hard to believe this WR 400/360 has survived in this condition. WR has no records on it, but it has to be over 110 years old.

Leopard and Buffalo.

Well not a Boddington special edition Buffalo , so maybe more correctly just 450/400 3". It is quickly become my favorite rifle on the deer lease. I bought it to take to SA for Cape Buffalo, but the wife says I am to old and decrepit to go. I feel the old, but not the decrepit. I have taken deer and hogs with that gun.

The Leopard works good on Deer. But I got rid of the Swarovski and found nice old Leupold 4X. I could not get proper eye relief with the Swarovski. Nothing wrong with Swarovski, but it just didn't work on this rifle.

If you can walk you can hunt buffalo. Better to be the turtle than the heir when buffalo hunting. GO!
 
I can walk, yes, I am not decrepit. The problem is Airline fainting. More and more episodes. Last flight from SA in 2008, one hour in I fainted. They wanted to take me off the plane in Senegal-like hell!

Been several more episodes since then, the most recent this past spring, on a short trip. Doctors tell me their isn't much the can do for this. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate they say. Add in old mans non aggressive prostate cancer and all that water makes you uncomfortable real fast. l'll do the short duration flights' but don't want to do a 15 hour flight-might need to carry Depends.
