Big Maswa Buffalo
One of AR members, "Mufasa" has been in Tanzania for almost a month now. He sent me a few photos and I just had to post this one. Here's a beautiful 48" buff he took in Maswa.



I sure hope he'll share some higher resolution photos with us when he returns.

Edit: After posting, I noticed Mufasa's bull is the spitting image of the buff on the left in the painting at the top of this forum.

No lion as of a few days ago. He said there was so much plains game around neither the lions nor leopards were interested in man-made kills. Mufasa is moving to Ugalla and maybe he'll have better luck on the cats there.

There are those that do, those that dream, and those that only read about it and then post their "expertise" on AR!

I'm not big on size of trophies - rather want age and worn look. But THAT'S a buffalo with really worthy size! Big Grin clap dancing

In good hunting.

So my M70 is 46 inches long. That makes this guy 45-47? That's one helluva bull shocker

Wow, fantastic bull... really nice rifle! I'm with Maxbear, more about the rifle, please.


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling
