Amazing
Well done
 
Wow - dream hunt without question! Waidsmannheil!
 
Great trophies!
Looking fwd to the report!
 
WOW, congrats!
 
Bongo on day 2! Wow. Love the ivory tips on mature bongos. Bongo and sitatunga in 7 days...that's just fantastic. Congrats and I look forward to the rest of the story.
 
Nice you look like a very happy hunter. Very nice animals. Looking forward to hearing the details of the hunt.
 
That went well !!!
 
Who is the outfitter/PH? I would be thrilled with the bongo only much less the sitatunga a few days later.

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
