141 400 gr A-Frame, top box is full, loaded and shot 9 test loads out of the one of the bottom 2, 24 break away solids, I would sell all for $500 shipped to you, looked at Swift and Midway for pricing but none in stock
Scrap the idea of a new one if that is what you where thinking, plenty of used CRF guns for sale that have history, someone hope's and dreams of Africa, maybe even already been there, find one and use the gun for it's intended purpose.
Round chambered off the truck and unloaded before getting back on the truck, but of course if the PH wanted it different I would comply. Just a habit but I always drop the firing pin when closing the bolt on an empty gun.
I have a Leica Tempus on my 458 Lott. I just shot it off the sticks at about 50 yards, only took one or 2 shots to get it where I wanted. The 2 Moa dot will lay them in there pretty good at that range. Bore Sighting may speed up the process.
I have really nice 9.3 x 62 listed on here, it is a Browning Safari custom so no 3 position safety but one could be added easily enough, super smooth FN action, I will send you a link
Use swift data, you can get the speed right in 2-3 shots, then try a group, NF are very easy to develop accurate loads in my experience, you will need less powder for similar velocity as other soft point bullets
45 in 2016 to the Save, Buffalo in the Save was the first animal I took in Africa, went back in 2018 to C9 in Mozambique, and had plans for 2019 that didn't work out then Covid and life has gotten in the way. I think about it multiple times a day everyday.
Just order some NorthForks from reloading international, it’s likely they will shoot better than the swifts, no guarantees but I bet you won’t be disappointed
Evidently not in this case, I am more of a superposed kind of guy, haven't had a double rifle yet but this one looks nice. The guys I shoot skeet with all shoot right handed guns and have to dismount and change hands to get the gun open, I don't think that would be a good quality for a DG double.
I spent a couple days tracking Buffalo there in 2016, lots of plains game, elephant and Buffalo, they had just killed a big lion. Beautiful area, I believe there are some reports on here if you use the search function.
These are what I have for recovered NF's, 23 animal's from Klipspringer to Giraffe including a couple Buffalo and one very large Eland. The bullets on the right came from the Eland and Giraffe and where mostly finishing shot's I believe. I also saw a soft (300 gr SS)under the offside skin on a...
You should buy it, its pretty nice, I bought another AHR 375 after I sold that one because I missed that one!! LOL, in retrospect I could sell every safari rifle I have and just use that one if I could get it back!!
I sold this rifle back in 2018, maybe @Aaron N has something he wants to put back on the market and posted on my thread? If I hadn't sold this I would be keeping it at this point
The North Fork softs a just as good as the CPS's. I have typed it on here many time's, and told anyone who will listen, the north fork will have the lowest standard deviation with less powder and the same velocity as other bullet's, thus being more accurate than the other's. I have...
No such thing as overkill in Africa, the -06 or 7 Mag would do fine like Phil has stated in a plains game area. But while your there I would advise going to a Dangerous Game area and in that situation a 375 is the perfect plains game rifle, just in case. A plains game safari in a big wild...
I have one that is super nice in 300 win mag, 7L so 1967, no salt, has some light pitting on the barrel, looks like someone left some blood on it, otherwise remarkable condition for a 55 year old gun, I would sell it
