The question on the Nowatny would be was it made or licensed by WR for their propriatary cartridges, in particular the Super Magnum Explora. If the gun had original 2 3/4" chambers it was certainly chambered for a magnum paradox cartridge but which one?

I have a promotional DVD from a South African Outfitter that was given to me in 2004 when I was researching my first Safari. This clip is on that DVD so YES, it's been around a while!

For a very detailed discussion of the situation surrounding this clip, check out AR under the "Shooting Lions from a Truck" thread.

So if the rifle in question is more interesting to you than the ethical questions raised by shooting a lioness at close range from the relative safety of the back of a truck with a "cage like" rail and chair system often used for shooting from the truck in SA, then that's just fine.

But let's not go on a hunt together, OK?
