I think you can still do this in Botswana.

Hi, @franzfmdavis In an ideal world where I could pursue an unlimited number of African lions (my personal favorite of the African Big Five), I would totally love to own two .375 Holland & Holland Rimless Magnums: 1) A Magnum Mauser Oberndorf Model 98 2) A Westley Richards droplock ejector...

Hydro or FMJ ? Their website says that they are currently not making the FMJ solid

Out of a .300 Winchester Magnum, I’d go for a 200Gr Nosler Partition. And my point of aim would be behind the eyes. Great game to hunt.

For Cape buffalo, a .375 Holland & Holland Magnum (wide V backsights and uncovered ivory bead foresight) loaded with 300Gr premium grade expanding bullets has always suited me best. Based upon current market choices, I am (at the moment) using the 300Gr Barnes TSX. If availability was not an...

I’ve successfully made one shot kills on Nilgai till now with: 7x57mm Mauser .30-06 Springfield .300 Winchester Magnum .338 Winchester Magnum The .300 Winchester Magnum loaded with 200Gr Nosler Partitions really hits the sweet spot for these gigantic antelope. With calibers smaller than...

My first man eating Royal Bengal tiger. The hide was gifted by the President to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II during her state visit in 1983. She wasn’t just another VIP that I met & accommodated during my career. She was a very likable, laid back & approachable person face to face.

Heartiest welcome. I absolutely love Dubai and was fortunate enough to have dined at Burjal Khalifa.

All the best !

Federal lists 300Gr Swift A Frame factory loads as currently available. https://www.federalpremium.com/rifle/safari-swift-a-frame/11-P375SA.html Between the two bullets that you list, I’m a Barnes TSX man all the way. The only African game animal which I would not employ it against, are...

Hi Mr. @Mark Henderson I absolutely love your content. It’s really annoying, but understandably inevitable that your hunting exploits would draw the attention of these keyboard commandoes. Harassment towards our kind is unfortunately nothing new. When President Theodore Roosevelt was leaving...
