An older friend who has passed away now built me a 577 on a 10 gauge action. It’s ugly but it shoots good . It’s regulated with 90grs of varget and a 650gr bullet. He called a nitro for black load.

How do you add photos??
You can just drag and drop your images into your post and they should upload automatically.

Otherwise start watching this video at 13 minutes into it.

 
Looking forward to seeing your photos. The nice thing about the larger bore double rifles is that they don't seem too picky about what you feed them. I have had good luck with Varget and cast 650 grain bullets in mine for reduced loads, but the one that stands out is 75 grains of IMR-4198 and 590 grain cast bullets. It will shoot these to exactly the same POI as my full house loads and will put 4 into two inches at 35 yards.

Good morning,
Did you hunt w Leeuwkop at their ranch or in Zimbabwe? The ranch looks awesome, but I'll be in Zimbabwe for buffalo and whatever else we dig up.
What did you hunt for?
Vaccines?
What rifle did you use?
I feel like I need a good cotton safari shirt and an ammo belt to make the hunt feel right!
How often did you shoot prior to going?
Did you use sticks for shooting practice?
