Three questions.
What is the rest of the story on the Lion.
What happened with the Elephant?
Did the girl from Shooting World come with the rifle?
Thanks for sharing. Amazing rifles.

Good firearms photography is truly an art! There's some folks here on the fire who are good at it. Perhaps one/some of them could put together a bit of a tip list?
Pretty sure none of mine are so worth photographing but it would be fun to try to get better at it.

That last Cape buffalo must have looked like a porn star standing next to his buddies. Lord have mercy.

Beautiful! Not a single plastic or 700 to be seen!  I noticed a distinct lack of Weatherbys too....

I had to look that one up to make sure it didn't have biblical connotations.. I am NOT hostile to culture or the arts-as the definition says-there is nary a Weatherby in the house!

I'm surprised more guys don't take pictures with hookers either.

Didn't realize until I enlarged the picture that this is Jim Corbett's .275 Rigby (aka 7x57 for the unwashed) that "has accounted for many man-eaters". If you can't read the letter in the second pic hit Ctrl + to enlarge the image, then hit Ctrl - to put it back to regular size. The third picture is a full length view of the rifle. ![[Linked Image]](https://67.media.tumblr.com/5260fa4b92568523ed507c0d29599ddf/tumblr_npsn3kRRFZ1tn3ub0o1_1280.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1213.photobucket.com/albums/cc471/JiminIdaho/Corbett%20Rifle.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://huntforever.files.wordpress.com/2015/07/rigby-corbett-rifle-in-original-case.jpg)
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
