G'Day Fella's,

Sorry, but Ripp stole my thunder. Not a problem mate!

Apparently Ripp, his African PH's and I aren't the only ones.
I was just having lunch and reading the current edition (May-June 2009) of SCI Safari Magazine. I see on page 62, that SCI Field Editor, Mr Jon R Jundra after 33 years and 20 African Safari's later, like Ripp also chose to take a Remington 700 with him. In fact he took two Remington 700's!
His Light Rifle choice was a 7mm Rem Mag and his Heavy Rifle, (like Ripp), in .416 Rem Mag!
Mr Sundra used the .416, to bag his 44 1/4" Cape Buffalo and if you go to page 103 of the same magazine, you can see him shooting over his Lamborghini. So I assume he's not short of a dollar but his choice to hunt Dangerous African game was still a Remington 700!

Ripp, I think it's called Fate!
Man, if your number is up it's up, regardless of whether you have a Rigby or a Boito in your hands at the time!

I read that same article--kind of made me chuckle...especially with the Lamborgini in the photo...now that's funny...

Again, I have no problem with anyone choosing whatever weapon, brand, whatever they want..heck, I have probably had one or more or most of what is being made with my pride being a W/R double in .470...so everyone shoot until your hearts content, makes no difference to me...

As to the topic of when your time is up when it is up..heard today the lady that missed the plane from Brazil to France and therefore avoided certain death last week..was killed yesterday in an auto accident..may her soul rest in peace...but, almost sounds like something from the "Twilight Zone"..

Take care..
