Congrats - Nice bull!
 
No bull, I agree with everyone else!! However, I'll cut you some slack, please include the rest of the story in the very near future.

Taken with a Winchester Model 70 in .375 H&H Magnum, using 300 gr. Woodleigh Weldcore PP bullets. 4 shots, placed as quickly as possible in the boiler room.

Congratulations! A fine looking buff!
As mentioned, it would be nice to see how the Woodleighs looked after the damage if you managed to keep them?
 
Nice bull, well done Arizonajake. As a matter of interest, what did your PH carry?
 
Did you recover any of the woodleigh protected point bullets? I’ll be taking some with me to Zimbabwe next week.
@375Fox what will you be hunting here? And what rifle choice? I hope you have a wonderful trip, there have been some great hunts so far this year.

I was only able to recover 1 out of 4 bullets fired. The bullet was found on the far shoulder, completely mangled. The other 3 passed through. Unfortunately I could not get a good focus with my camera lens.

As mentioned earlier, I could not get good pictures of the one bullet which remained in the buff. However, they did the job.

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

Hello there. I’ve been wanting to introduce myself personally & chat with you about hunting Nilgai. Give me a call sometime…

Best,

+1 Great to deal with. I purchased custom rifle. No issues.

I saw you were looking for some Swift A-Frames for your 9.3. I just bought a bulk supply of them in the 285g. version. If Toby's are gone, I could let 100 go for $200 shipped you are interested.
Thanks,
Gary
