Greetings from Texas

[RLMetz]

Welcome Rick! and Congratulations on your Botswana hunt. Lots of Texans on here.
Good luck on the left handed 416 Rigby. I'm not positive, but I think John Rigby & Co. offers its Big Game rifle in left hand, but it's a special order and not cheap. I have the right hand Big Game 416 Rigby and just returned from a buffalo and plains game hunt in Limpopo province SA, on the border with Botswana.

Thanks Chashardy. I reached out to Rigby and they can't do the LH 416 in the Big Game, but only in London Best - which starts at about 25k pounds. So I will keep looking. But I would certainly like an actual Rigby, if in a lower price bracket.

Welcome from fellow Texan. I’m just south of you a ways in El Campo. Will keep look out for you on a Lefty

Thanks Mark. Good to meet you.

Rick, welcome to the AH forum! Since you enjoy reading the reports, how about writing us one on your Botswana elephant hunt? I for one would enjoy it for sure!

Definitely. I will do that. It was with Kwatale - a great outfitter - I had a great time. Frans and his team did a superb job with everything.

Welcome and what was your first African hunt?

First was Namibia in 2014 for Leopard. Never saw one or had one on bait - long story. But got some nice plains game and learned some valuable African hunting lessons. Recent trip was much better.
