Of course. I'm Mike. I live in Rural Arizona. I hunt just about everything, but have not been to Africa yet. Came close a couple of years ago. I bought the hunt, chartered the plane, and Covid hit. Had to cancel, but will make it yet. I may be a bit undergunned, as a 300 winmag is my big caliber. That is why my neighbor brought this one to me after a hunting conversation.

It is a 495 A-square. It is built on a 1917 action, with a beautiful wood stock. Peep sight at the rear, with three flip up rear sights on the barrel for 100, 200, and 300 yards. He has about 30 rounds of loaded ammo, and 100 monolithic brass 600 gr bullets with it. I didn't take any pictures, but I could. He offered it for $2k. I don't have any idea of the value, so google brought me here.

Grab it up for $2k. If you don't like it, can sell it easily and buy something else.

Haaaaa. Have seen. Lot of .460 Weatherby’s for sale over the years with two rounds missing from a box of ammo.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
