It is more a general type of book. There are no blue prints in it (if I remember correctly). But of course it contains the basics of building weapons...

That's one of the books used in Ferlach

A .270WIN will kill any boar in Hungary... with a proper shot placement of course...

I would be very interested in ordering the book too...

That's the boar I shot last year in Hungary...

Hi You can always get in touch with https://blaser-safaris.com/ Tell them your wishes and they will make you an offer of your desired hunt. We are using them as our outfitter for nearly 10 years. We never had any issues, no matter if hunting in Hungary, Czech Republic, Scotland or Africa...

Mine is not fully checkered. It's cut out and checkered on the bottom

As some have already stated, I am using only Barnes TSX for Buffalo. So no solids in the pouch... I have 4 in the rifle and another 7 in the pouch. There is a superstition in Austria that you should only carry an odd number of bullets and of course never 13... But there is more ammo in the...

That would be this "let him decide how he wants to die" bullshit, am I right?

Birthday present for me, myself and I :)

I am totally lost, if I see an original Mauser 98 with matching numbers all over the stock and the action and made between 1904 and 1945... that's most of the time a "shut up and take my money" situation. Last month I was able to get my hands on a Farsi Mauser in like new condition... Up to...

235gr Barnes TSX with the Reload Swiss RS60 79,5 grain and OAL 90,5mm I don't know which pendant to the RS60 is available in the US

Yes, we are the ones with the alps and the snow, but all without the kangaroos

Please let me clarify that Kahles and Swarovski are Austrian products

I have the same rifle and got myself a Kahles 1,6-8x42. I love that combo https://www.kahles.at/en/hunt/riflescopes/helia-1_6-8x42i

Oh, it does. I cuddle with mine almost every day... Got 4 of them, so a lot of love is given I would like to add the 8x64S like some of you already mentioned. Nearly dead, but what a great cartridge it is...

A single word and not much more - "Jeffery", "Jeffery 4-0-4"

Another Barnes man here :) I am using 235gr, 270gr and 300gr Barnes TSX for my Winchester 70 in .375H&H Depending on the game I am hunting only the bulletweight changes. But the gun is always fueled with a reloaded Barnes TSX

striving for those points... there you go Already mounted is a Meopta R1 1-4x22

No, obviously there is no relevant market share

Thank you very much for sharing your wisdom

Which is good or bad? Sorry for the maybe stupid question. As an Austrian I am much more into Mauser rifles and their history than Winchester... I might be able to buy this rifle nonetheless. And AFAIK no more Safari Express rifles will be delivered to Europe in .375H&H. So I guess I will...

Hi A question please to all you forum members Is there any info available where and when a Win 70 Safari Express in .375H&H was built, when the serial number is 35GZN047xx ? Thank you in advance for your help

Go for it

Yes, I am using shm brass in different calibers like 8x64S, 8x57 and .375 H&H... You can order "selection" brass which is +/- 1 grain in weight. Very good quality and very good customer service.

No, there are very different offers. There are several larger properties with self sustaining herds. There are a lot of great offers on this site on a regular basis.

I fully agree and can only refer to my hunt in RSA where I ran miles and miles to get spooked and spooked again... it felt quite real beeing in the bush, sweating, getting tortured by thorns, mosquitoes and other creatures. My PH just said on day 4: "after this day you really can say you have...

Hi I would strongly recommend to buy and read this book at least two or three times. Most of your questions will be answered (and some of them you don't even know of right now too ) https://www.amazon.com/Africas-Dangerous-photographs-Catherine-Robertson/dp/1571572775 I hunted my first buff...

Voere is located in Kufstein, Austria. They are manufacturing tactical and hunting rifles for a reasonable price. https://www.voere-shop.com/en-gb/shop/ Quality itself is pretty good for that price range.

After some months of reminiscing I would like to add two more chapters to this magnificent hunt. Due to very, very much luck I managed to collect two other trophies. An old Impala we saw grazing in a clearing all alone while driving down a hill. We were able to come close and the shot was at...

Most difficult shot ever taken was in Scotland at a red stag. No way to get closer, pouring rain, strong wind and about 300 yards to go. The PH handed me his Tikka T3 in .270Win with a Nightforce scope, told me where to aim and wished me good luck. The first shot hit the stag right behind the...

I love the fine reticle of the Kahles scopes. Shot my buffalo with a Helia 1-5

8x68 -> you won't need a 7x64 and another 9,3x62 Or a 8x64S and a 9,3x64

That is the exact reason why I decided to also get the Swarovski Companion CL in 8x30 and the Swarovski Harness for stalking. Both worked great since I have them.

As an Austrian I have to mention Kahles. Excellent quality for a reasonable price https://www.kahles.at/en/hunt/binoculars/

I am sorry... but...

As an Austrian I have to fulfil my duty: Bösendorfer is an Austrian company located in Vienna

This is the TSX which broke the opposite shoulder of my buffalo at approx 40m It's a 400gr .422 bullet aka .404 Jeffery. It's a reloaded bullet with approx 2300fps. The buff went 25m and was down bellowing. The Barnes did all the work I could have asked for. So I wouldn't change anything for...

I shot a buffalo with my. 404 Jeffery last week at 40m. The Barnes TSX 400gr broke the shoulder bone of the opposite side and got stuck in the bone. 25m and the buffalo was down bellowing. I would use Barnes again without hesitation!

Well, I have a 8x64S. It's a custom rifle based on a Dumoulin Mauser action. I love that rifle... I am reloading Hasler bullets from Italy and shm brass from Germany. Shot a mufflon, fallow deer, wildboars and doe with it.

Thanks to all of you for the congratulations!

The Barnes TSX 400gr did it's job perfectly. It was stuck in the broken opposite shoulder and did a lot of damage to both lungs and the blood vessels.

Today I got home from a really great Safari organised by Wayne Wagner Safaris. The PH was Ian Brown and we were hunting my first buffalo for 7 days in the Limpopo province. I have to say that Ian is a wonderful person. He is friendly, funny and a really great PH who is living for the hunt...

Thank you all for your answers. I will take my Samsung S22 for the "hunting pictures" and the Nikkon for the rest. The Z50 will stay in the backpack in the car during the buff hunt. If we are successful the car will join us anyway. So maybe it should be possible to take some trophy pictures...

Hi I am leaving for RSA on Monday and I would like to ask all of you experienced hunters how you manage the whole camera thing during the hunt itself. I would like to bring my Nikkon Z50 including a 16-50 and 50-250 lens. I love the camera and the pictures are great. Of course carrying the...

I have loaded Barnes TSX for my hunt in two weeks. 80gr of Reload Swiss (RS) 60 and L6 = 89.5mm P.S. As always - no guarantee and using this data at your own risk

I asked the outfiter and he told me to bring sharp knives for the staff. So I got 5 pices of Mora knives and 5 sharpeners as a little first present.

Thank you all for your answers. I would probably choose also the red option because personally I think that's the region with the best possible margin of error... A .404 with a 400gr TSX should do the job, if I do mine...
