I am hoping I get a skull like the one you are holding. August can't come early enough for me now. Thanks for your comment.

Right on the money there. The o/ u is a Beretta silver sable and the other s/s is a Merkel. The .470 is a Chapuis.
 
That 470 NE is what I would use on the Cape buffalo ! They are big and they are mean and they are hard to put down. Mine had just started to run at me with six of his buddies when my PH urged me to shoot him in the chest........I did (see picture)

What an animal. Well done. Our lame government is about to ban the import of trophies taken in Africa. I hope I get mine in before the ban.
 
Yea I think lion will be next for non import! The tree huggers are winning the battle of the press. But I plan to keep hunting till the Feds make me stop. Hope you have a great time on your hunt sir you sure have some great guns to take along.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
Behind the scenes of taking that perfect picture.....

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
