Leaving in August for South Africa. Carrying a 35 whelen. My question is would it be better for my reloads using Hornady brass to be put in Remington factory boxes or just a plastic ammo box?

Thanks Bob ! Found some accubonds to try. Appreciate your suggestions. Will try the Varget and Cfe loads.

Bob, Those accubonds are as scarce as hen’s teeth! Is I could locate some what loads would you recommend to get 2800- 2900 fps ?

Thanks for everyone’s help. I’m just getting really anxious. First time jitters. Haha

Will the 225 gr Barnes Tsx work well on plains game? This will be my first time using a Barnes bullet. The largest game I’ll be hunting will be a Blue Wildebeest.

That’s the one I have and will use on my trip. Never had any fees!

All great information. I booked a room at Africa Sky. Thanks to all.

I liked the ideal of Africa Sky. I was concerned about arriving late and leaving the airport.

Arriving on Delta flight to Johannesburg. Which motel would you choose , and is one safer than the other ? Will be picked up the next morning by outfitter .

I’m going to the Limpopo region for a plains game management hunt in August. Obviously my first trip to Africa.

Thanks! Always nervous about passing along personal information.

Is it normal for outfitter to request a photo copy of your passport before your hunt ?

Just for the record : They would be charging me a 3% fee. I way that against being robbed or other unforeseen circumstances. It’s my first trip and have no real experience with the outfitter. Didn’t mean to start a war !

What is the opinion of using a credit card to pay for your Safari ? Going to South Africa in August and have the option of paying at the end of the hunt. Would bringing cash be better?
