Workin' in a factory right now. Got a binocular, whose carrying strap is a pair of shoelaces. And a single shot 20 ga model 37. Guess who goes squirrel hunting, carrying his gun like Mark Sullivan, on the lookout for charging hippos, but will take shots at squirrels whenever they happen by. In blue jeans and a t-shirt. Someday I'll have a Rigby 577 double, and someday I'll hunt in Africa.
I have that gun...both of them...my first gun at 10 years old, Win model 37A, and I learned how to gun smith and made my own .577 Nitro Express. Mark once asks me to make him a 600 and 700....nope...don't fancy regulating those at full nitro loads. The .577 is enough...especially since I regulate mine at 2175FPS, I called it the 577 overdrive.
I used to be a critic of Mr. Sullivan, but I did talk to him at the Harrisburg Pennsylvania Sportsman show. The man is a showman and he is "selling" himself. There are lots of PH's out there, and lots of really good one's, especially those from Zimbabwe. But Mr. Sullivan has realized that by the time a guy has achieved a monetary position where he can go to Tanzania and hunt, he's most likely an old man. Or a not so athletic man who works with his brain, not his back. The client needs, desires to have is ego stroked. The client wants the Hemingway experience. I get it. That why those same clients accumulate fancy cars they don't drive. Yeah, I poked at Mr. Sullivan, but he's working an angle.
I never hunted buffalo so can't say anything about that. But its nice to hear an experienced guy like this say that all the kit you need are rifle, ammo, GPS and binoculars. And the rifle is a nice side-by-side with just the iron. Sure, he is a showman with lots of attitude, but if I would go big gaming in Africa I would like to have this guy leading the way.
His voice reminds me of the actor Tom Selleck and his thirst for adventure while living life to the fullest reminds me of President Theodore Roosevelt.

@@georgestem2039 Correct. They just crush you or eat you anus first. There are no shortage of cape buffalo. Probably the most even instance of firearm hunting there is. Get over yourself.
I met him before at the 2004 NRA convention in Reno; He's not bragging nor is it bravado, he's been places and killed big animals of the like we never will, that's pragmatic experience being articulated. It's just like going into a battle in war and surviving; You're older, more experienced and you have a tale to tell.
This Mr. Sullivan is brilliant - I like a man who has the courage of his convictions and the experience and knowledge to have well formed opinions...Bravo !
I like hunting predators with my dad and we've had a few close calls with Badgers coyotes bobcats you name it but this is the next level and I would give anything to hunt with that dude 🤤
I have known Mark since the 80s. Love him or hate him, he knows his business and is a showman as well. And yes he does indeed provoke most of the charges. If you have no taste for tempting the grim reaper, do not book with Mark. If, you need near death, to feel alive, he is THE PH you should go with.

“Most buffalo don’t charge” why? “That’s Mark Sullivan, I’m out of here!!!!!!” I would hang on every word he says if I was hunting with him!!!! Never argue with experience!
Some well-earned truths from a PH who's obviously seen what works and what gets people injured or worse. So many of his ideas parallel the same mindset as using a handgun. I'd love to spend a few days learning from this PH. Great video, thanks for sharing this!
Awesome Life saving tips... WOW! Cape Buffalo.. Scary beasts!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for the Tips Mr. Sullivan, I don't plan on going to Africa but the hunting tips are really cool... at least from being safe in the Jungle or the Wood...
Thank You. Holds true for tracking wounded grizzles. Thank You, for pointing out, the bino position. I hate seeing those chest holders. Just crap, in the way. The only place for something on the chest section, would be your pistol of last resort. Your very admired, thank you for your professionalism
Hey I like this guy....very honest appraisal and fascinating explanation of the mind set needed to hunt dangerous game. Certainly entertaining and sounds like a he would be a good instructor to learn from.
Absolutely love the video Mark I've seen tons of your movies and stuff that you've done and I feel the same way that you do about hunting especially dangerous game, there's no greater exhilaration in the world, you also put your life in their hands,and just so you know my blood brother that is a beautiful rifle that you've designed, I've seen a lot of double guns in my day but that is amazing 🤤
I have shot two charging bears and one charging cougar during 35 years of biological field work in northern BC, Canada. All these charges happened within in seconds and all animals were killed within 5 yards. I could not agree more with you on all points and all these other internet experts you see and hear so often do not really have a clue and have likely never been in a real situation. I carry an over under combination gun with side locks too and at close range even the 12 gauge barrel will do its job for all our species here in Canada. If I were living in Africa I'd choose a side-by-side form Heym in a larger caliber too. I always loved their rifles best, especially their sidelock doubles and the company is so great to deal with. In my opinion though the most dangerous charges are these damn fast cats like cougar and leopard or jaguar, I shot mine in mid jump at just 4 yards. I find, getting as low a shooting position as possible if you have the time to fall on one knee, helps! Great video and chapeau since you speak from experience!
Better than a loose cartridge holder slidng around, is a ammunition belt with elasticated loops (leather loops quickly expand in the heat, causing your ammo to drop out - a bit embarrassing when going "into battle" to find your ammo has fallen out!!). So, 10 rounds in such a belt, on your loading hand side, works.
from one hunter to another hunter I like your style ... fight front sight is a hunters code ... holding your rifle close and not out does really does help Evey millisecond counts guys in the field .. moving light weight is very important be light is a hunters must guys .. the power of big game will kill you in an instant .. Mark is your name I'll remember that sir ... I'll probably build the same gun near to the same materials from guns smith's who build almost by hand for a fraction of the USA Europe market gun smith's..
Anyone familiar with a quality expensive double: Is snapping or dry firing a no-no ?? Or would you need a spent cartridge for the firing pin to strike or device that allows you to practice trigger pull?? In some weapons years ago the topic of dry firing on an empty chamber generated much debate both yea and nay depending on your camp. But shooting at stationary targets or tin cans is one thing, but if dry firing can damage or affect firing pin seating or misalignment while big game is bearing down on the shooter it is imperative there be no mechanical failure, lest you arrive in heaven early.
When I hunted Buff, after downing the bull we were charged by a another Buff in the herd coming at us at right angles of our targeted bull. Worth baring in mind that the threats could come from anywhere. PH downed the marauder.
Thank you Mr. Mark. Why did you choose the .577 NE, why not 600 NE or 700 NE?? Most importantly, what have you to say about the. 460 Weatherby Magnum. I'd love to see you do a review . Thank you
I am not Mark but 600ne lack of penetration while 700 ne is not practical choice and 577 ne have better penetration than 600 ne and practical choice than 700 ne
+Sphere723 Haha. That is a good way to put it. I think he is intense but such a man. I wish we had more men like him these days instead of the beta cuckold white manginas we have now called millennials.
if you think hunting is cruel because the animals have no chance to defend themselves, consider how Sullivan hunts. he gives the animals a fair chance to survive. if they turn and run away, he lets them go. if they decide to charge, that .577 is gonna bark. he goes for a brain shot which is the most humane way to do it. turn the brain off and it's over.
"if you think hunting is cruel because the animals have no chance to defend themselves" Yeah, that sound like one of those retarded definitions of cruelty vegans would come up with. In case of sane people, cruelty means inhumane suffering. This is not a duel and there is nothing cruel about a clean kill.
You have no idea what a hippo is if you think there's any chance that it's going to "turn and walk away". A hippo is an ultra-aggressive, fiercely territorial beast weighing nearly two tons, that sprints faster than you, and can kill a grown man by biting straight through the ribcage using its powerful jaws and 15+ inch sharp teeth. It's the most dangerous wild animal on the planet; hundreds of people are killed in hippo attacks every year. There's simply nothing in the nature of a hippopotamus that could make it not kill you for being in its territory, approaching like Mr. Sullivan means either he or the hippo is going to die.
@@cadebeek3111 He uses the best rifles, that's for sure. But he always seems to put that 900 grain or 750 grain solid IN THE BRAIN. King Kong could've been killed instantly with one shot, if they but a 50 bmg through his eye and into his brain. Every mammal will die instantly when lead touches its brain. Of course, they do seem to die more gracefully when shot with a double rifle of 45 caliber or higher! 😁
@@kermitthefrog5926 Yeah but there’s literally a video on TH-cam of Sullivan shooting a charging Hippo in the Head where it stopped him momentarily for just enough time to land 2 more headshots before going down! And that was with his .577 NE it was crazy
All this criticism , and i wonder how many of you have hunted in Africa ? I havent, so I am not qualified to judge this man. I see a few of you have been there to hunt. I listen to your comments, the rest of you are judging something you know nothing about.
Just to be clear, I believe this man to be extremely qualified. He is only showing us how he hunts, and not stating that his way Is the only way. All that being said, I see more people criticizing his character and not so much his hunting and shooting abilities. That being said I'm not sure you have to be an African Dangerous Game Hunter to judge somebody's character or I should say personality, I think that's a better word. Either way I have no problem with this man, but that's just my observation from the comments I've seen recently.
I’ve been twice. Hunted Cape buffalo last year. I’ve taken 9 animals with ten shots over the last 2 years. This man obviously knows his business but his pomposity is hard to deal with. I used a Blaser R8 in .375 H&H for my buffalo. A one shot kill. With my Aimpoint Red Dot Long Hunters sight and the Blaser straight pull bolt, I can keep both eyes open and get off a second shot really quickly.
You might no like his attitude, but he knows what he's talking about. I prefer a bolt action and shoot the buff when it's at 70 metres 🤘 I leave the 7 metres business to him

I've watched this video 3 times. Spine tingling. I can feel the adrenaline
This is exactly the way it should be done! Not sniping from 200 yds away in hidden cover as so often is practiced now days. Well done Mark !
Thanx for this clip Mark. Hope to see you again soon in South Africa. Happy hunting and congrats on that beauty double rifle you got there.
Very good advice especially about the binos.

This Mr. Sullivan is brilliant - I like a man who has the courage of his convictions and the experience and knowledge to have well formed opinions...Bravo !
I think the same of you!
Great video! Same attitude that I liked about Peter Hathaway Capstick, whose books I love! Awesome rifle, too!
Thanks for the upload! This was a treat.
That red recoil pad makes me think about Teodor’s Roosevelt safari double rile AKA “Big Stick” from Holland & Holland.
I love this guy, he has walked the walk and can talk the talk. I would hunt dangerous game with him in a heartbeat...
I love this guy. No bullshit, it is what it is and he is speaking from a position of knowledge.
This is my type of hunting close and personal you don't sit in a cache waiting for shit to happen you make shit happen.
knives fan I love to deer hunt in a stand,but like you said I love to track animals too on the ground or in a rack
I like hunting predators with my dad and we've had a few close calls with Badgers coyotes bobcats you name it but this is the next level and I would give anything to hunt with that dude 🤤
I just use my double rifle at the range, but I still appreciate the perspective here.

One thing stands, this guy is a tough SOB, to have nerves of steel waiting for the Buffalo, or the hippo to get within 10 feet or so before he fires.
Man is tough with a big gun !
I like that he talks about himself in third person.
A buffalo gallops, and a hippo trots ; good general knowledge
