I’m 1,000 % convinced you are on the right track. The meat eater podcast with Ed Ashby changed my life. I have no experience to add on buff hunting, but that’s what I would use. Good luck

I did a lot of bow hunting on my first safari in 2007 and had tremendous luck, it is fun to really sit out in the African wilderness for extended periods of time, the wind changing can clear a waterhole very quickly.

Light rifles are bullshit once you have a big bore, the more you use and carry the 375 the more proficient you will get with it. Why risk ever being undergunned? They also work great on the tiny 10. If you want to keep spending $ you can always get better binoculars

We are looking at doing this for our trip in 2025, curious to hear more on the rifle process as well

I would plan on being proficient out to 300-400 yards, I took some long pokes out to 260 with my 375, I will be going with a 200 yard zero next time. I wouldn’t cut the rifle to run the can, it’s not going to matter if it looks like a flag pole.

I have been underwhelmed with my Leica trinovid Bino purchase for what this is worth. I know it is there lower end but have always bought optics in that class from zeiss and leupold and truly find myself grabbing my vortex more often than not as the handling is superior. Go figure

I wore full length gaiters from cabelas and treated them heavily with Sawyers, I’ve had lyme’s disease and do not want tick bite fever. They do make it easier to stomp through low mountain brush as well

I hope so too, we have plenty of time to work out the kinks, he could’ve scored an entry level blazer for the price.

Good hunting! Can’t wait for the reports

Looking through the scope is impressive, great clarity

The eastern cape, he will be running a can on the end so hopefully the recoil will be manageable

The fact that vortex has the silly bell on the end tells you it’s not intended to be on an action as long as a 375

The detachable magazine is scraping the side of the casing for the shells to the point there’s a noticable groove along the entire side of them, it’s occurring as they get picked up from the clip

I agree! I ain’t getting run over by a murder cow over it
