Now that's a hog thumper! I like the stainless look with the black stock. Interested to hear your personal opinion as far as felt recoil with it....

Like I said about Roger's .375, "That rifle just screams Australian water buffalo hunt!"
Maybe you and Roger could book a hunt for Down Under buffalo. It'd be much cheaper than Africa.... Go on do it.... I will come along with yas too  ;D

Well I don't have an outfitter at the moment. Where I use to go the bloke died and then the property sold. But I do know of several other quality outfitters in the NT. I will post some up tomorrow or the next day when I get back home.

I wonder if anyone makes a rear peep sight for this rifle? Did some googling but I haven’t found one.

On peep-sight options for your rifle, check out Skinner Peep Sights and also XS.  I am thinking that one of them makes one that mounts to a standard Weaver scope base.  You will usually, but not always, have to also change out the front sight for something higher.  If you have some "Redneck Engineering" skills, a Dremel, perhaps some taps and screws, and JB Weld, you can mount many things to a Weaver scope base.  MM
