    270 Win. enough on big tuskers?

    My reasoning: - This is a hunting trip, so whatever you shoot, you have to pay for it, and it might be expensive. Whether you kill it or not. - In the evening, it's hard to estimate distances accurately with night vision. - Can you see with night vision how the game is standing? Is it standing...

    6.5 Creedmoor for hunting

    The three key elements to consider are the type of bullet, the energy at the target, and shot placement. The name doesn't matter. In my opinion, the excessive hype and hate surrounding the Creedmoor caliber stems from people overestimating their abilities. They think that if they have an...

    ZIMBABWE: Story Of The Hunt For Two Dagga Boys

    Our PH was Shingy, and he was really cool. Whether for me as a complete beginner in Africa, or for my friend Roman, who has been hunting all over the world for a long time. PH was there as a freelancer, it was through a travel agency, I don't know the details exactly. But now he has set up his...

    $25,000 in Africa excluding, flights, tips, and trophy shipment what would you do?

    Ein richtig großer Keiler ist immer eine gute Wahl! I don't know exactly what the pricing is, what would fit in the limit, but yes, this is also a good option for jungle hunting.

    $25,000 in Africa excluding, flights, tips, and trophy shipment what would you do?

    Something in the jungle. Everybody hunts in the savannah, I would go for bongo or forest buffalo in Cameroon, Congo or CAR.

    Question On Heart Shots

    As colleagues have written, when an SA node dysfunctions, another tissue takes over its function. Damage to the large vessels in the chest has the same effect on haemodynamics as cardiac arrest. Anyway, this in itself is not a reason for immediate death (only in a few seconds - the organism can...
