    The Clash of the Titans: Heym Martini Express VS Rigby Big Game

    I think we have the same friend at Gordy’s. I’m going to visit him there later in the month when I’m in town for some meetings.

    I’ve been looking for another Model 70 375 and this gave me the excuse I needed to pull the trigger.

    Andre Botes with Black Buff Safaris

    I have no knowledge of the outfit about which you are asking, but they do match the description of every sketchy South African outfitter who “arranges” hunts in other countries. Is he asking to come along as an “observer” to pay all the “fees”?

    To the poors-I salute you!

    One of my favorite Ray Wylie Hubbard lines is,”…the days I keep my gratitude higher than my expectations, those are really good days.”

    Rigby Big Game cycling issues

    My guess is this issue has a lot to do with cost and nothing to do with safety. If you follow their safety logic, then the 450 is the only safe rifle they make and all the others which do not have this “feature” are not as safe and should be modified to function like the 450. My biggest concern...

    Rigby Big Game cycling issues

    I was thinking about purchasing one in 450 Rigby a few years ago. I tried one out at DSC and it had that issue, I decided to go another route. I can’t see spending that much for a rifle with an inherent issue.

    Get experience first? Or, hunt dangerous game right away?

    My wife had never hunted Africa when we went to Uganda last year, but she is an avid hunter in Wyoming. The first morning out we were going to try to find a warthog so she could get a feel for the process of hunting with a PH. Instead we found this and all went perfectly.
