Beautiful yes, but a tad too shiny to get stamped into the dirt by a rampaging cape buff... and I’d rather ejectors too (controversial I know).

Lovely round, true stopping calibre. Tad heavy for where I live now though

Fantastic looking rifle but I'm not that thrilled by the engraving. The buffalo just doesn't look right to me.

You're right. Definitely dodgy engraving. Zoom in on the buff's eyes, muzzle or chest and they look like something from a child's sketchbook.

Cartoon like is how I would describe it. It would look much better if they hadn't engraved it in my view.

Yup you are right lads that engraving has devalued a rather nice rifle!

The engraver has tried to capture the "look of rage" in the buffalo`s eyes.

I see the "look of a line of coke" in its eyes.
