    Good to hear. Looking forward to seing the mounts.
    My wifes uncle just got his hides and horns. Used Ron's wildlife service out of Richmond...Flawless service. I'm off in July. A year delayed but looking forward to it.
    doesnt matter what kind of bullet it is, as long as it weighs 180 grains its DEADLY, even on ass shots....Todbartell-2009

    Doesn't even look like the same hartebeest.
    Knowledgeable shooters agree- The 375 Ruger is the NEW KING of all 375 caliber cartridges. ALL HAIL THE NEW KING!

    No it certainly doesn't. I was very disappointed. However the one I was sent is my hartebeest. The horns are much darker but it is the same one. However it still does not look as impressive as it did in the shot from the field. I will post some pictures once I get them up on the walls. I could take some of them on the floor but doesn't so them justice.

    Haven't logged on in a long time. Had to go back and revisit this thread from years back. Can't believe I had time to post such a long story.
