There is. I've got a copy actually.

Very nicely done on the shot as well as the video. Mind giving out the camera and editing software specs?

As far as the camera and editing software specs, I don't have a clue. That is a long way from any area of expertise I may have.

Excellent! That should be shown to all new hunters as the goal of the stalk and shot.

A+ with extra credit points,sharpsguy!! That is one impressive shot!

Note: If you shot right handed, you'd have had your pass through! grin

The 45-70 deserves most of the credit.

Nice shot, although didn't you get the memo that any cartridge not capable of 3000 fps is totally useless in Africa?

The round is spectacular, the rifle a work of art, but the man(and the tons of lead and powder he put downrange over the years) was prepared for the shot. This man is a shooter, not a bragggart.
