Some people chase the North American 29 and I have done a bit of that myself but for me Africa has been my thing. I didn’t realize it till the trip that was to complete it for me but in 2021 I was just one animal away from completing the SCI African 29 with a Roan Antelope. Now this was over 13 safaris and 14 years of hunting Africa to reach this moment. In the 14 years and 13+ safaris I traveled to 5 different countries within the continent and all but one multiple times. Now I did complete this with a archery Roan taken in the Northern Cape of South Africa once my article on this hunt is published within SCI magazine I’ll be able to share the full story here with all of you. But for now my journey to hunt and explore all of Africa continues.

Congrats, last month or so your photo was in SCI’s monthly newspaper type publication. Can’t remember the animal, not roan, but I recognized your name from this forum

Thank you! I believe that was an Gredos Ibex. This story should be in the next Magazine publication.

Hallo Marius- do you have possibilities for stags in September during the roar? Where are your hunting areas in Romania?

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on another rifle but would love to see your rifle first, any way you could forward a pic or two?
Thanks,

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
