Greetings from Texas

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.
 
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.

Great advice, thanks Velo. I have checked GI a few times the past few weeks and will continue to stay on it. Appreciate the advice!
 
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.
 
Welcome
 
Welcome to the best forum! Enjoy!

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
