I am a Barnes fan and am partial to them based on the performance they have shown in several different calibers. Specifically in my 7mm RUM I have shot the 160 gr Barnes TSX in plains game with wonderful results. My favorite bullet is the 145 gr Barnes LRX and if Barnes would have had this...

I have only hunted July and August. I liked August the best as there seemed to be a little better visibility when stalking. Either month is great, however.

Congratulations on a wonderful elephant and a great story.

Personal choice for everyone between themselves and their doctor. For me, if there is any risk then I will be taking the medication.

If DG is not on the menu then I take what I use here in the US which is my Remington 700 SS in 7mm RUM. I shoot Barnes bullets exclusively in it, hand loaded for the game I am hunting. For example, the last hunt for PG I worked up a load using the 160 gr Barnes TSX. It worked great. Since then...

67?

Tred Barta. Now that’s a name I have not thought about in a long time. Last I remember didn’t he go through some serious health issues? I don’t remember the name of his tv show but I remember him being a hell of a tuna fisherman. Was also fun to watch him hunt with his longbow.

Taurus Judge, 2 3-4 inch .410 shells or 45 LC. Great snake dispatcher and I have owned one for years. When I lived and hunted in South Texas I always had it in me when in the brush.

I jumped on the 7mm RUM bandwagon in about 2003 and it has been my main big game rifle ever since. I have enough brass and components to last me a lifetime. I also have a bunch of factory ammo I bought when the brass started getting hard to source. I will never run out of ammo for it and when I...

Congratulations from another Wyoming AH member! There is nothing quite like hunting Africa.

I have worn about all of them over the years but my boots of choice today are Anderson Bean’s and Luchesse. When I am out in the country in the warmer months, sometimes I will wear my Tony Lama snake boots.

I shot Core-Lokt 45 years ago out of my 270 Win, right up until I started reloading. Have never shot one since after discovering much better bullets over the years.

Wonderful account of your hunt and new found friendships!

My first experience with fresh cheese curds in Wisconsin many years ago when on a business trip made me think I had died and gone to heaven! That squeak on your teeth and warm buttery texture was a real delight. Couple that with some good sausage and your tongue will slap your forehead! My...

Congratulations on a very nice first safari!
