I don’t know. It was materially different across the board. Both were current models, the wood on the express was also much nicer.

I have shot both, the Alaska kicked more.

Hard pass on qd rings for this guy

This is helpful, I am past the point of even worrying about my ammo it gets so convoluted, no one knows airline policies better than Africa hunters.

This all the way

There are definitely safer places to go, but they aren’t going to scratch my itch for adventure. I try not to hang on to life too tightly. You can go somewhere and be safe, even if that place isn’t particularly safe in general. If you are deliberate and have good ph and plan your travels...

this is exactly why I ended up suppressing my 375 it makes a big difference. It still hurts my head so I have to be smart about how much I practice. That’s as big as I will ever go. Also would not be afraid of a muzzle break. I know everyone hates them but it is your brain for crying out loud...

The older I get the more I feel like a loser when I’m going way out of my way to curate the perfect picture. Over the past few years I’ve gone to more of a truck bed skinning pole kindof picture guy and I love it

Any recommendations on local guides in Capetown would be appreciated

Beautiful rifle

I’ve taken two big bears with them! You are in good hands

I think the 375 makes sense, I know so many people that have wounded bears. They cast a spell on you!

I actually have that one, just tried, no dice. Medium it is!

I need an ammo case for 3 boxes of 375, which model Apache should I buy?

Really curious how this gets answered, I’ve always assumed it would be Tanzania something

375 all the way

I would get a 3-9 if you plan on using it for more than just buffalo.

I would not do this. Just eat the salmon yourself, imagine all the ways this can go wrong. I don’t approve of flying with fish.

375 HH is the only gun I will take game with going forward. I don’t care what it is or how far, it’s my baby.

What is a good resource to stay up to speed on African news and politics?

It’s mandatory in my opinion.. tick born diseases are not good and could ruin your hunt

So scary! Been really interested in that concession

No! We will be fluid, open to suggestions

3 nights!

Looking for best recommendations for hotels and restaurants in Capetown. Not on a budget. Thanks

I just hold squeeze and pray. Works for me

Wish they made something that could reduce the report from large bore rifles so they could rely on their hearing in important moments during the hunt… maybe some day!

I’ve taken plenty of shots that I wish I could’ve dialed for with my 375. I would use a 100 yard zero and your load of choice for the custom dial.

That blaser would be really cool with a can on it honestly

Cut it

City is so easy. Have heard good things about all of them

I’ve been twice in Saskatchewan and got two giant bears over bait. I wouldn’t rule that out

Wish there was an American made double that honored the classics.

Swaro z3 all day

Yes I will bring it next time, very curious as to what the impact might be

I shot mine with my 7 mag with Remington core lokt

First range trip- this thing shoots great! Recoil is nothing. 100 yard zero knocked out, now I can play with the sticks from here on

Great write up! Really brings it home

That is so funny- small world! They were super helpful and definitely worth every penny

Introducing the Heym 84b

Tsx are my fav and readily available

I get it.. i was a nervous nelly dropping it off. Originally I wasn’t going to shorten it, just thread it. The gunsmith convinced me this was the right move.

Hearing is also fundamental. I read your post… to say that suppressors gaining popularity means the republic has fallen is specifically what I was referring to, and the “skinny jeans” and “wormy men part”. I’ll stand by what I said, since only time will determine if I am right. For now just rest...

It is titanium - the balance feels fine to me, we’ll see how it shoots

8 inches in the field, 10 at the range

Try not to lose sleep over my rifle dude. This isn’t that big a deal, you are worried about the aesthetics of someone else’s weapon

lol. Love it

That’s how I feel, once you shorten the original barrel and add the can, the difference is negligible, what you gain in accuracy and shoot ability in my opinion offsets any maneuverability sacrifices you have to make. Not to mention, wearing hearing protection has major disadvantages as well...

This is actually my first can purchase- you are correct we will be hunting buffalo on a private ranch in the eastern cape, they will be large areas, but we aren’t exactly crawling through Jess like in the Zambezi valley or something. When I inevitably book that type of trip, or travel where...

Haha- I get it, trust me I was a purist but I ended up caving. I don’t love recoil, I’ve had some concussions in recent years
