Finally got my trophies from my 2021 hunt in South Africa. Taxidermy done in the States. I asked the taxidermist to do a pedestal mount with the option to hang them on the wall. They now occupy a corner of the room, but that didn't stop my wife from warning, "You’re done, right? No more trophies!"
'What will happen when I get my Buffalo and future Eland " I thought

Yeah, that "How many trophies do you have?" question from the wife. My answer, like with guns, "not enough". My answer will always be the same, but go ahead and keep asking all you want.
 
I really like this pedestal. It does a good job of showing off the size difference between the antelopes you can take over there. I don’t know about your wife but I’ll be looking forward to seeing the eland and Cape buffalo next to it.
 
NIce ....
 
Really like your mount and the versatility of being able to swap them out as you get other trophies.

Here is the secret…just ask @Just Gina …learn about women’s purses and shoes!!! I got my wife a Louis Viton Purse and I got a painting and a fully mounted leopard if I get him!!!!!
 
Really great triple mount. Very well done.

Where did you get the taxidermy done?

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
