I would NEVER try to import an elephant on my own. Only Conservation Force can do this for you

Marks reply is the very best you will get given both his experience and expertise. A great Marine!!!

wow a PH, please tell us more about yourself and welcome!!!!!

very fair point! I am just going on a lot of experience

Awesome bull and well done!!!! Excellent bull and hard earned!!!

may I say hats off to @375Fox for posting this! much appreciated and very insightful!

so sorry my friend! This is why before I go on my yearly hunts to Africa I get Doxy, Malarone given I am in a malaria zone and a strong anti diarrhea medication all just to be on the safe side

Thank you!!! I am a business executive. Finally honesty not hypocrisy has been stated and I 100% agree with the honesty of this video. The math and logic is undesputable!!!

Interesting while I too find courtney to be heavy they are the quietest boots with the tire tread souls I have ever worn

It’s not people in the know. Their main distributor in the US is Africa Creations who are excellent if you are trying one of their mass produced boots. Mine was ordered outside them directly through Courtney with them knowing I would be in Zim to pick them up

Let me present my stupidity to our forum please. I have tried three pair of Courtney boots all pinched my small toe or the e width was too wide. So knowing I was coming to Zim I reached out to Courtney directly. I asked them to please make me a Hunter Brand boot wider than a D width but less...

i’m in zim now hunting my leopard. my favorite is the 100% cotton short sleeve Tag shirt with the air circulation pouch on the back to breath better. The anvil irons will not hurt them like a synthetic shirt

Perfect buffalo to take! outstanding animal! Well done!!!

@Mark A Ouellette is our master with a doctorate on this subject. Mark my good friend please direct the op to your excellent tutorial on this subject

Eland the best tasting animal on earth!

very fair price for a beautiful well maintained DR!!! GLWS!

my humble opinion if a bolt action nothing beats the 404J. yes I sold my two 375’s and love my 404J. Of course I am first and foremost a DR man

thank you!!! makes sense to me now!!! I absolutely would do that

wow. while I greatly respect it has a higher tip structure paying trackers $150 per day is unreal and I for one would not do it. four guys on truck 10 days $4500 just truck. just me. not happening but I greatly respect you for doing that just to be clear.

nicely done!!! Congratulations on a great hunt!!!

I am sitting by the fire in Zim with Tokoloshe for 16 days hunting my leopard and a bull elephant

Simply outstanding and well done my friend!!! That is a huge water buck!!!!

15.5 at 84 grains is my preference

My first was a 450/400 NE with 400 grain DgX Bonded My second was a 375 H&H with 300 grain Federal Premium. My third was a 470 NE with 500 grain TSX

Laura Sewell with Galigar was awesome! within two hours on Friday she had me bonded and insured for all my rifles. Appreciated her sense of urgency

Looking forward to report! Sitting at gate waiting on my flight to JNB. Then off to zim for my 14 day leopard hunt to complete my big 5

I hate Testse flies with a passion!!!!! Truly they keep me out of Tanzania and Zambia. It does not take but once to be around them and my thought was a smaller horse fly multiplied by hundreds of them

Your gun should have been regulated at 2150 FPS which is what my two were. I have had zero problems with TSX or DGX Bonded at all and neither have people I respect due to their experience and again my own. Are you I recommend IMR3031at 80 grains to achieve this with 570 grain bullets

If you still have problems I would send to JJ Perodeau in Enid OK. He is the best DR gunsmith in the world. I send all my DRs to him when I buy

Rouan and Brandon with @TSALA HUNTING SAFARIS two of the best PHs I have hunted with. You will thoroughly enjoy your hunt with them!!’

Kevin is spot on. I would add a kudu. If it was me a buff, kudu, Zebra, Impala, Gemsbok, Water buck

Spot on!

I have had a very similar experience and now just use normal tripod

Great thread Franz!

Given I have a Rigby 450 NE DR, I ran Quick Load for you. Attached are the readouts for both 140 and 160 powder. Please note the following: I did not have the 485 grain so I used the 500 grain bullets. The 160 was the clear winner to me given I could get 2082 FPS with almost a 95% fill rate...

The only issue I have ever had with the 8 DRs that I have owned was with my Merkle. The sear that prevents double firing broke. In my follow up research I found while this is a great feature of the brand, the sear breaks quite often. I immediately sent it to JJ Perodeau who easily fixed it.

Absolutely stunning!!! Thanks for sharing! My Rigby 450 NE serial #17258 was made by Rigby in 1905. It is as plain as a rifle can possibly be made but I love her dearly! Your write up was magnificent and is worthy for such a rifle as you now possess. Will you be taking it hunting?

I dropped a Timney in my 30-06 and never looked back

TTT

All I can say is WOW!!! Truly one of the most beautiful guns I’ve seen in my favorite caliber!!!!!

My mother’s maiden name is McGuire and her middle name is Nell so Irish runs through my veins!!! While Namibia is great everything depends on your budget. If this is your first Safari I recommend the Eastern cape with @game4africa for a 5 animal PG hunt with excellent facilities you and your...

I want to say @AZDAVE taught me this after my lion charge video posted to AH after I struggled to reload fast. Please forgive me Dave if I am wrong

I group 2 together skip 1 then 2 together etc. This helps you grab two at one time speeding your reloading.

I have a 10 cartridge holder with only TSX softs. solids not needed for buffalo

I feel sorry for the guy but I could not help thinking a grenade would have been better in his hands than his DR. I watched all the shots where the bullet impact was apparent…it is very clear he just kept missing the correct kill zone starting with his first shot which was way too low on the...

Great post! The 375 H&H will easily take all but my 404J would be my ideal choice for all of them. However, where is the fun in that? I would take my DR in 450 NE for the buffalo and the brown bear. The rest would still be my 404J.

I just want to commend you!!! You are always presenting fantastic offers particularly for first time Africa hunters....well done!!!!

Nicely done and good price!!! You got the cost before they go up. Congratulations!!!!!

I will take 10 packs please. I did not know you had 50 packs of 100. 10 packs would be great!!!! please see my pm. Thanks!!!!!

i will take them all!!!! pm coming
