Well guys it's here. I have to say it is everything I expected and more. I can't wait to get the front bead on a Cape Buffalo in August. I will try and post pics soon.
 
Congrats!!!

PICS!!!!! :)
 
It is great to see a new toy in the house.

Have you taken it to the range and fired a few test shots.

i would be interested in seeing a few picture of your new baby and a few shot targets to see how you performed.
 
Congratulations!

Not yet, am still waiting for the paperwork to come through from the local law. I am starting to panic as all the paperwork for the Cape Buffalo trip is needed very shortly and that was why I bought this rifle. I am now wondering if my Merkel 9.3x74 is going to be gun enough if I have to take it.
 
Just a quick pic of the new addition before it went off for licencing

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ

What is the minimum you would take.

I have a Chapuis 450-400 double that looks brand new and shoots well, never been hunted from what I can tell. I am willing to part with it as I have a 375 H&H Sodia on it's way from Dorleac & Dorleac. I am looking for $9,250 for it and if you are interested, I am happy to send you some pictures. Regards,
Steve
