  • Hello.
    I was talking with Tom and he said he hunted Lion with you . I was wanting to know the cost to shoot Lions these days as I hear the prices have dropped a lot.
    I hunted with Tam Safaris several years back and got a big male.
    I am coming over to South Africa again next year in Aug and may want to shoot another one.
    What are the costs these days for a big male.?
    Let me know what you think.

    Hi Kendog, excuse my very late reply do not know how I missed this!
    2017 I am sure to assist with good prices.....at the end of January 2017 I will know for sure.....if things turn out my way by then - you would look at $8500 for a male (4 to 5 years old)....send me your email adrs please so I can add you on our mailing list.

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.

Have twice tried to post something that your site canned as "SPAM" or some problem.. "Contact the Administrator"... Not sure why even the "Contact" button would not send my comment so you only received my query but not the content in question. I'll see if I can get it to you this way... NOPE I use a VPN and perhaps that is causing me grief...
