Season 18, Episode one features a large bore lever action used on Buffalo. Does anyone know what it is??

Looks like a Winchester 1886 that came in a number of cartridges from 45-70 up to 50-110
 
Has very nice wood on it. 50-110 I can believe.I didn't recognise the cartridge when they we loading it.
 
I think they said it was a turnbull in the episode
 
I saw that episode, I think it was in Uganda. One of the buffalo hunts turned into a shit show gun fight.
 
You're taking your 99 right?

Hi @CJW ... That is correct: the 99 (.300 Savage) for PG. I am also taking my .45-70; I have not ruled out another cow buffalo hunt. :E Happy:

Good luck, is your daughter still going with you? Y’all have a wonderful time and can’t wait to see the pictures and write up.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
