Very big Black impala on one of our hunting areas what do you guys think he will measure?

Cool animal. I never killed any of the unusual color phase plains game animals but black impala and golden wildebeest are beautiful creatures for sure.

I am not good at guessing horn length but he looks like a giant impala.
 
Black Impala are cool, look very much like Dark Fallow Deer.

Around 24-25in can’t see how much he curves back.
 
The PH on my first safari in Zimbabwe put me onto one a little bigger....and I whiffed the shot!
That one is a don't hesitate, just shoot size.
 
He is nice and wide
But looks pretty flat(doesnt curve back much)
Will make a nice trophy
 
He is old and wide and a nice throphy but he is 2 inches short of RW....
 
Would really like to see him from the side so we could see how far he goes back and then how his tips come back forward.

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA
