Thanks! Looks like I will stick to Barnes loads in the book and try to find some H380 I suppose. RL15 is virtually unobtainable it seems.

My double regulates well with Hornady DGX/DGS, but I have a Zim hunt in ‘24 where a hippo on land is a possibility. Outfitter prefers TSX for the task. I have quite a bit of H4350, but no data in Barnes book for it and no response on my email I sent them. The load for a jacketed 570 soft from...

You won’t regret it. Hunted here with JP in September ‘19. Was into buffalo daily (shot 2) and lots of other plains game as well. Top notch hunt all the way around!

Pm on green case too…

Ill take the gray scoped case and orange shotgun case. Pm coming

I just booked our flights for 6/24 to Zim with Gracy. Going business on Qatar DFW-Doha-JBurg-Harare. No overnight in JBurg but there is in Harare for us to catch the Kariba flight the next morning. A bit longer but was half the cost of flying business straight from Doha to Harare. Saved about...

Then pony up a bit more and do one of the other two options he offers…This is a great opportunity to help with conservation and take home a lifetime of memories AS WELL AS the option to pay more and “be able to look at it.” For what its worth - My framed pictures on the walls get a more...

Failures definitely can happen with factory ammo too…this was my second in line cartridge on this buff in the Selous with Barnes Vortex 416 Rigby 400g TSX.

Doxycycline and Deet for me. Malarone messed with my head.

I will take the sling if its available. PM coming Thanks

I prefer to think i have a chance of protecting myself or worst case scenario help someone else if all hell breaks loose from a potential screw up on my part, no matter what situation presents itself. I would never rely 100% on someone else protecting me, which in this case is what the crossbow...

My DG rifle is a RSM .416 Rigby. I like the cool factor of using traditional calibers, but both will do the job. My only complaint with my Rigby is the limited magazine capacity.

You would drastically increase your odds of a 55+ kudu by looking into Botswana

I take my 2 scopes in my carry on with Warne QD rings and 2 rifles in a Pelican 1750 case. Works well for me, never had a problem this way.

I had a good experience with Kanati all the way around. Received my replicas this past October after ordering them at DSC 2022. I had them use chain/leather to hang them instead of the bases for beside the fireplace due to how my fireplace hearth is. This is how they ended up being displayed...

Somebody is going to get a great deal! No way I would part with mine for $1500!

I have always liked a 2 gun approach. My 2 gun safaris have consisted of a 416 Rigby with 400g tsx or 400g barnes solids, and a 300 H&H shooting 180g ttsx...Unless you just want to, there is no reason to go with more than a 300 with 180g bullet for plains game. On my DG hunts, DG was...

I was just relaying my experience to buck wild, I can't speak to what it was like pre 2021 I guess...

I hunted Botswana twice in 2021. My trophies as well as my buddies trophies from May are already at our taxidermist in the states. They are crating my September hunt now. Debbie has been very good to work with.

I hunted with Jaco in September on a concession in Chobe. You could not ask for a better PH/friend to hunt with. He will break his neck getting you the animals you desire. There virtually is no concession in Botswana this guy has not hunted at some point in time. He is a born and raised...
