    Rifle scope reticle choice ...

    Strelok can produce this. You enter bullet details and choose scope in app. And you can see it at different magnifications. The red lines are wind. You might need to load Strelok 'sideways' due to restrictions, but it works fine.

    Cull hunt questions

    Namibia also have culls, see the deals section, e.g. Khomas, and the hides can be exported. Savings depends on what you compare with but certainly cheaper than trophies.

    Recoil reducers

    I don't see silencers mentioned here. I haven't tried muzzle breakers, but according to my gun pusher a silencer is almost as good as a muzzlebreak. I have ordered a A-Tec H3, size .458 where one can take off modules when hunting. (Have an R8 rifle so not very long all in all.) .

    Horn-only mounts?

    I personally think a zebra hide can look a bit zilly :LOL: so plan to do this when I get mine, perhaps especially good for low ceilings: https://www.forsythart.com/products/sterling-silver-framed-zebra-hide

    Ethiopian Airlines declaration form??

    Velbekommen! And see now you also asked for info if still required. It was in October last year, plus you need to call Ethiopian (have an office in Kbh), or have your travel agent do it, to put your weapons on the ticket. I had confirmation from Ethiopian that it was done, but as it had not...

    Perusing a book on the great hotels of Africa

    I have twice done a combi-tour, ie two weeks of holiday (camping not resorts, but same principle), then some days of hunting, once with daughters and once with girlfriend.

    Tattoos... advice from those so adorned

    As usual in these threads it seems people are responding with answers that has nothing to do with your question, you are not asking if it a good idea or not or if people like it, you are asking about experiences. I had my first when 57, own design on my arm that everybody agrees is beautiful, a...

    Exporting Firearms from Germany

    I would not be surprised. I was involved in trying to get just a barrel out of the US. It seemed impossible for me to transport it to the airport. And I bet here in Denmark you can't do it either: for anybody to take posession of a weapon, the seller need to see a weapon permit, and that is only...

    What calibre? (Yet again)

    If the PH suggests minimum .300 for zebra I would certainly use that as an excuse for bringing my .375. But also the 30-06, to camp only, not on the stalks. Once you have shot your zebra, you can change barrel. That must be one of the great advantages of a R8, two rifles in one case.

    MOZAMBIQUE: It Was The Safari of A Lifetime

    Oh my, leaving it hanging like this! Is this a Stephen King novel? Really well written!

    Anyone run a muzzle brake-suppressor combo on a .375?

    Ah, yes, perhaps no added sound as such, but it is louder for the hunter's ears, and the neighbors.

    No-Man's Land - Fact or Fiction?

    Here is a drawing of a roe deer that I find quite clear with many relevant details:

    Anyone run a muzzle brake-suppressor combo on a .375?

    That seems not to be entirely correct. See eg my earlier post: " "The way I read the data, for a .338 LM caliber, 338 Ultra-RR, one gets a reduction in sound at shooters ear from 137 to 134 db using a sup+brake and down to 132 db using only sup. Makes sense to me that a bit added sound with...

    Culling belt vs Cartridge Slides

    Sounds like a good product. Searching online I find something from china, from Malaysia, something for cars and something for seals, etc. If you have a direct link I would appreciate it. Thanks.
