Mauser 25

Finger banged one at the local and at Jagd and Hund earlier in the year.

It's a modern Mauser 66 with Blaseresque interface.
 
According to Mauser, it's a new straight pull action and is everything for the hunter and, "..everything except a status symbol."

As much as I love the 98, I can't get too excited about any of the newer Mauser rifles.
It is pretty hard to improve on perfection.
 
Mauser m12 was for a time on my wish list.
But it is also a rifle that has pressed in barrels to the receiver.
For the owners with gunsmithing and barrel changing ideas this is not first choice.
2nd hand rifle in barel burner calibers is also not the best choice.

M18 is budget gun.

M25 is not blaser r8.

This way of thinking leads me to conclusion that m98 is still the only serious choice.

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?
