Hello all. This is my first post here. Glad to be able to participate. By way of introduction, here's a Charles Lancaster that might be of interest to this group.

.500/450 built in 1891 for Victor Duleep Singh, the eldest son of Maharaja Duleep Singh.

I can't say the rifle ever visited Africa, but by the tags on the case, it was well traveled.

Welcome to AH! I'll bet if that if that rifle could talk it would have some stories to tell.

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?
