CZ 550 .416 Rigby RAFFLE

Bullthrower338, I will make due.

That storm is in Maine right now, making it's way to me, along with the 416.
 
I feel like I started this friendly banter about winning the gun. One of my kids is doing that Flat Stanley school project where a card board cutout goes to interesting places and a picture is taken and presented to the class. I almost feel like this gun should stay in JoBurg and any AH member can use it as long as we get picture and the story. I know that this is difficult but I like the idea and thought I would share it.

But that would mean I'd have to leave it there next May...I think you guys should just come visit it in Indiana sometimes
 
In the good old days when there was no fear of a .416 would be used in a coup d'tat we might have pulled it off.

I'm not that crazy about loaning my Guns to anybody:)
 
I like the idea. But in a way this gun will be like flat Stanley, someone will win it and go to RSA, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, etc and will post a hunting report with pictures showing all the buffalo it kills along the way.

I certainly intend on using it for at least elephant and i'm sure a few others!
 
OK guys so the moment you have all been waiting for is here. Things kind of fell apart today trying to get this done so instead of a video we ended up doing a live random number generator to pick. The winning number is.......

This is a screen shot of the live draw on Skype with the number generator. That ticket, number 6 belongs to....

How hard is it going to be to get it into Canada?

Bullthrower338 it was my art work and I just fixed it. Do not blame Albert.


We were all getting a good laugh at my mistake.
 
What? Wayne, the one guy watching it was the winner, with a wiener on his ticket? That's weird...too many W's!

I await April fools day for my Avatar to make a mysterious change.

No clue. I'll start working on it.

I may just give it to one of these guys to bring across for me.
Apparently, you don't need a visa or anything to walk into Canada

Like the good old days....if you can't see the borders drawn on the ground they must not be there!

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.
