First Hunt w/video

Looks like a fun first hunt and nice video.

I tried hard to ignore how much I hate the rifle! but the impact on game really surprised me. I wasn’t expecting such dramatic results with such a slow bullet.

Shot placement always help but that round performed very well!
 
I also found a skew-horned waterbuck in Africa. I love the character too. Great video, and great hunt.

Can you fill us in on the specifics of your rifle? :)
 
Great video. I enjoyed hearing your thoughts and emotions around the hunt for each animal.

I didn’t realize there were two rifles. I thought it was just 8.6. What did you take with each one?

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
