World's most popular community & resource for hunting in Africa since 2007
Ontario Hunter
I have been hunting big game, uplands, and waterfowl since 1964. And have shot almost all big game with the WWII Springfield my dad sporterized for me two years earlier. I am in excellent health and still hunt hard every fall. I am primarily a stalker and tracker. While building a .404 Jeffery built on a Czech postwar commercial Mauser, I found several informative threads on this site and decided to become a member.
