Very Nice! Nice to find one that is not worn badly on one side like mine.

We couldn't believe it either. I shot him in the mountains which are pretty much all rocks.

450/400 -- what did you shoot him with? A .450/.400 by chance?

I wish! I actually shot him with my Brno 21h in 8x57 with a 200 gr TSX. We were in the mountains and hadn't been able to get closer than 300 yards to anything. Anyway, we came around a corner and he was standing there looking at us, he ran over the hill you see in the background, we followed and I shot him at about 125 yards when he stopped to look back at us.

I hunted in two areas. One was flater with trees, bushes and knee high to waist high grass. This was in the mountains and was certainly more open, but with enough vegetation to stalk. I posted a trip report in the Hunting Reports - Africa section.
