Excited to be here. Hunted North America for 51 years primarily white tail deer. Bucket list is to hunt moose and go to Africa for a cost effective plains game hunt. Just bought a 416 Rigby. Love the site especially the forem
World's most popular community & resource for hunting in Africa since 2007

Welcome aboard Rare Breed. What kind of 416 Rigby did you get? Have you taken it to the range yet? If so, pics of the results are in order providing you were able to get the rifle sighted in. Don't worry about going to Africa, this bunch will help push you over the edge sooner than you think. No joke, hunting there is a hoot and once you go, rest assured you'll be going back.

we have another great review https://www.africahunting.com/threads/south-africa-henry-griffiths-safaris-hunt-review.96470/
SCmackey wrote on SBW1975's profile.
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
