Soooooo, I graduate college in December with my Bachelors. My dad has known that I’ve wanted a double forever and I got a surprise phone call today to come pick up my graduation present from my good friend at IGFA.
Behold, the FAIR Safari in 9.3x74R (yes I know technically it’s not 375 or larger). I am so f’n excited I’ve just about wet myself over this. Now just to save my pennies and go whack another buffalo but with this guy this time!!!!

What a fine looking piece to take a buffalo with! And congratulations on your college graduation!
A bud has a Chapuis I think it is in 9.3x74R. A fun double to play with!

Its funny I never really gave the caliber a second thought until I got to play with @ActionBob ‘s 9.3x74R. After shooting his Sabatti I was in love :love: with the little caliber.
 
congratulations!

never heard of the brand before, let us know how it shoots.

Thanks I’m in the middle of my last two classes now. One is fun and I truly and deeply hate the other.
 
Hang in there! Not much time left!

Thanks, I’ll get it done but I really
#%*!?#% hate this senior capstone class. :mad::mad::mad::mad:
My other one is poetry of war which is an awesome class.
 
Looks very nice. You'll have to give us a report on she shoots. Congrats

Congrats on both! Beautiful rifle!
 
Great gift.

Congratulations on your bachelors!
 
Wow, what a present! I’m open to being adopted if your dad is looking to gift another one!
 
Give my best to Rudyard Kipling and congrats on the rifle (I trust your professor includes “Gunga Din” and perhaps “Tommy?”). That double would also be an awesome thing to take on a bear hunt on this side of the Atlantic.
 
Is that rifle going to be available for clients to use at the Rockin G?;)

Is this rifle sold? If not what is the weight of it and do you know if there is enough difference in diameter between the 35W and the 9.3 to allow for a rebore to a 9.3x62 which is what I am after?
Thanks,
Gary (Just down the road in Springfield)

Forgive me if this is the incorrect area, I signed up to this forum just now because I wanted to be on the list to purchase a copy of your autobiography. Please feel free to pass my information along to whomever is selling. Thank you so much. I look forward to it!
I like the Tillie in my picture. They are supposed to fit loose (2 fingers inside hat band), have mesh for cooling, and hold their shape after washing.
