Mannlicher model 1905 in Africa

Sorry about the photo quality but when I ran across this thread I couldn't resist sharing. This is a Nyala shot in the Eastern Cape years ago with a 9x56 Mannlicher Schoenauer and open sights. I also took a Mountain Reedbuck with the rifle on the same hunt. The PH loved the rifle and the idea of using it. Note that I also had a 300H&H along that most of the bigger and farther away stuff was shot with. Nyala with 9x56 Mannlicher.jpg

We are very excited to come to Salzburg for the first time.
Should you at all have any interest in hunting with me and want to discuss different options please do not hesitate to contact me and we can set something up.

A two minute video I made of our recent Safari. I think it turned out well
