For the big bore lovers...

From top..

Lee Enfield P14 in .470 Capstick,
Mauser M66S in .458 Winchester-Magnum
Mauser M98 by FN in 450 Marlin
Mauser M98 by Mauser in .404 Rimless Jeffrey
CZ 550 Magnum in .375 Holland & Holland

Unfortunately, until now, only the .404 saw action in Africa :(

Some beauties for sure!
 
HWL you need to take all those fine rifles to Africa!
 
Neat looking rifles, some very different looking scope mounts.

...great idea....but I have to earn my money the hard way, ....and when I go to Africa, it is more an escape than a journey.

But to talk about the ideal "African Batterie" would be also a great thread....

You don't need a batterie, you already have a 404..... ;););)(y)

You have everything you need for Africa. That 404 and 375 will do all required work.
 
Nice collection.

what kind of velocity does the 140 grains list, curious how they would fit in with my current 130 gr, supply of 270s. maybe a pic of the box data listing vel. and drop. Oh and complements on that ammo belt, nice.
