SOUTH AFRICA: South Africa Big 5 Hunt With Bossie Of LIMPOPO BIG GAME SAFARIS

Thank you for sharing and also to educate that you do have some real rhino hunts still avaialble.
Great bull shot with a great calibre made for it.
 
Amazing story @ActionBob ! Thanks a lot for sharing! You mention you have had two replica's made, the one the is on the full mount, as is, but would you also perhaps share the "artist's impression" on what the horns would look like if they had not been cut?

Cheers!

All he did was to use the mold from mine for the bottom and the top or point off another clients rhino. I'll post a picture when I can get to it... kinda tucked away to make room for Christmas stuff. ;)
 
Thank you for sharing, Bob! Would you mind detailing the load you used in your 505?
I'll have to dig up the loads but 525 grain flat point banded solid clocking right between 2300 to 2350. @matt85 loaded for me however I don't remember if I used his handloads or the Corbon loads.
 
Great memories. Thanks for sharing them with us.

Also a truly amazing animal. Congratulations.
 
Congrats Bob, a great rhino and exciting hunt :D Cheers:

That mount is really good !

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

2,822fps, ES 8.2
This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.
