Well, thanks to all the great information and hunting stories here on AR, and, in large part I'm sure, to Saeed's videos, today at lunch I went and had a local gunsmith start building me a .375 H&H. I have talked with one of our AR members about booking a leopard and plains game hunt for next May.

Thanks again. My banker, accountant, and creditors hate you all!! lol

It's going to be a stainless Winchester action, stainless Walther barrel, and synthetic stock. I'm looking at putting a Swarovski on it, but I am not sure of the size yet.

Briley is building it for me, and thay said I should be shooting it within 12 weeks.

Good golly what a title for a thread! I thought they had started hacking one another with pangas in Zim or something.

Congrats on the rifle. Maybe we will see each other at the American Shooting Center one of these days.

Definately, I will be there in about 12 weeks sighting it in.

2.5x8 Leupold silver scope and QD mounts... and don't forget to put some irons on it... maybe get them nickle plated?.... then go kill a brown bear in the rain after the leopard. It will be perfect!


JudgeG ... just counting time 'til I am again finding balm in Gilead chilled out somewhere in the Selous.
