Hunting consortium was once offering hunting in China for international clients. But now is quite a few years since this offer is gone. China closed hunting, around 2006. This is from internet history (so no longer on offer): China has fascinated westerners since Marco Polo journeyed to the...

Most important is, you found your way! (one in a billion!) Good job! And keep it up in the future!

No problem. Just ask oufitter what you want. I have a friend full of such trophies. Many times, it will be on culling offers.

Foreign companies drill for many companies in Saudi, UAE etc.... And have assets there. If the war becomes tit for tat on oil structure, they will become targets. I am following daily, so far one oil refinery was hit twice, and one unconfirmed news that one oil rig is hit. But for oil rig, this...

Three safaris on plains game I paid fully on the end, before going home. Two safaris on DG, buffalo and ele, I paid in full before the hunt. I dont like it, but it is how it is. From my expereince, it depends where you will hunt: farm or wild areas. Maybe there are other options elsewhere, but...

Unless you reload, and you depend on Factory ammo, avoid. If you reload, I have no doubt the ballistic tables dont lie. Should be good. Having said that: my 30-06, my 9.3x62 and my 375 H&H, can do everything this one can do, and even more. I confirm. Up to buffalo. I dont see in academic and...

I agree. But he did not ask before. Went straight to Zim! ;) Boys will be boys, hahaha!

I have this meopta. Bouncing in a car. Few times dropped on ground All ok. I dont ride horses, though.

Are we really entering ww3? First Ukraine? 2022. 4 years ongoing. No signs of truce any time soon. Now large regional conflict in the gulf, Iran. Step by step, major war operations spread globally. While I am still trying to comfort myself of things will end with negotiations and at the...

Agreed.

Sorry, but what is S/D?

In my case, i work there. So middle east airports are essential to return home (and then go to safari) If they block airports like they did during pandemics, i am stuck there. My african trip cannot be planned now. If they hit the rig things will get more complicated.

Hormuz straits as of now. Zero ships in transit. Screenshot attached. Link below They say, 20% of world oil passes through these sea-lanes in peacetime. Suez canal was closed for 8 years till open, 1967-1975. I hope this will last shorter...
