SOUTH AFRICA: Cape Buffalo Cow Hunt With GAME 4 AFRICA SAFARIS - Apr 2024

Awesome report, thanks for sharing, that was exciting!

I’m just back from hunting with G4H and working on my report now. Nothing as exciting as buff hunting but a typical first African Safari of plains game. Wik and all have a wonderful operation and beautiful properties.

As to bullet weight, for buff I’ll be using 300 gr Swift A frames in my 375 H&H. This trip since I was hunting PG I went with 260 gr Nosler Accubonds thinking I’d have some longer shots and they performed great. I’ll post pics in my report of the bullets recovered from the Eland and Blue Wildebeest. I brought both the 375 and a 7 mag (with 160 gr Swift A frames).

Actually, will post one here too as practice for including pics in my report.

HI Katy,
Thank you, it was an exciting hunt for sure.
Sounds like you had a great PG Hunt, which I very much enjoy too.
Look forward to reading about your hunt. Yes I think the 300g in the 375 is the safe way to go.
Yes its a great tompractise posting photos as they dont always load :)
G4H is a great place for a hunt!

Is this rifle sold? If not what is the weight of it and do you know if there is enough difference in diameter between the 35W and the 9.3 to allow for a rebore to a 9.3x62 which is what I am after?
Thanks,
Gary (Just down the road in Springfield)

Forgive me if this is the incorrect area, I signed up to this forum just now because I wanted to be on the list to purchase a copy of your autobiography. Please feel free to pass my information along to whomever is selling. Thank you so much. I look forward to it!
I like the Tillie in my picture. They are supposed to fit loose (2 fingers inside hat band), have mesh for cooling, and hold their shape after washing.
