Nitrox,

I must have mislead with my vernacular, I was stating this site DOSE NOT give that impression. Many sites I have come across come off that way this one not being one of them, hence my joining here.

Micky,
Thanks for your interest. Small game to most here I am sure but I have aquired a Merkel double in .470NE a pre 64 Winchester in 375H&H and commissioned a custom CZ based rifle in .458lott. I also purchased the Dakota 76 in 7mm for plains game. I feel the big bore bug has hit and hope I have not made first timer mistakes with my choices. I really want to find a Gibbs, Jeffrey or the sort next and another double in 9,3x74r would be nice over time as well as a true Brit double maybe in the infamous .577 for that stopper I really don't need

.

I have the best part yet to sort out with a Safari firm to make all this hardware worth it. I hope the SCI convention will help in this area as well as some others I have in mind. I have the hardware to support my next three adventures to Africa before the first, I have a tendency to be impulsive.
