Tony Sanchez Arino's "Great African Calibers"

[Hoss Delgado]

If anyone has read the book , " Great African Calibers " by Tony Sanchez Arino , could you please give me some information as to what he wrote about the 11.2 × 72 Schuler caliber ? I understand that he is one of the very few gun writers who did a write up on this caliber .
If anyone has the pages , it would be much appreciated .
Thank you all
Hoss

@Hoss Delgado , I have owned the book for about three years or so. Initially it was my go to reference book on African calibers. Tony wrote chapter 9 on the 11.2x72 Schuler (.440) ..page 46 in my copy. He wrote about 3.5 pages on the caliber. Please be more specific with a question if I am to try and answer it from his writings.

He clearly mistook it for it's elder brother , the 11.2 × 60.

Toni Sanchez Ariño himself signing his book today, I take with me a great memory of the Madrid fair

Ah but I hear he has a love for the 500 Jeffery of course

Great book even if you remotely have an interest in the big bore calibers. Unfortunately for me I never had the opportunity to meet Tony in person. @homeless hope you enjoyed the Madrid Fair...

I have been able to talk to him for 2 minutes, how many elephants had he killed???
I told him I like buffaloes.
That I had gone with caycam last year.
That the one of the 1317 that he has hunted only remembers the first

If I remember correctly he and Wolfgang Romney wildcatted his 500J from a rebated case rim to a rimless case
