Couple of days to go

[DaneNav]

Sitting here on a Drillship off the coast of Angola waiting for the last three shifts to be completed.
Then it's a Thursday trip by surfer boat to Luanda, overnight. Then a flight to Johannesburg to meet up with the group.
Then we head to the Kalahari where I'll be hunting for Eland, Gemsbok, Springbok and maybe a Blesbok.

Kind of an unexpected trip as I was unaware of it until late January. But I guess I get to test the BRNO much sooner than originally expected.

I will follow up with pictures when I can.

What caliber BRNO do you have? I have a couple a 7 x 57 and a combination gun in 12 Ga. over a 7 x 65R both are good guns. Good luck on your hunt.

Are you packed? Have you re packed? Don't forget your passport!

 

[DaneNav]

The BRNO is a ZKK 602 in .375H&H. I had been searching for it for a few months and found this one around Christmas time.
As for packing and passports, I packed in March when I left to come to work. I needed my passports then. However one of my passports is on the beach with the Angolan govt waiting for a work visa to be put into. I may be leaving it and traveling with one. One shift to go. They are getting long.

Best of luck!

The crew are packing for their flights this afternoon. I just found out I will get my passport back from the government tomorrow when I get to the beach. I can't wait to eat a burger and fries tomorrow.

 

[DaneNav]

Well I'm on the beach in Luanda. 5am wake up for my flight down to Joburg. Having a much needed Adult Beverage after 29 days at sea. The crew should be just leaving Europe for Joburg.

 

[DaneNav]

Ok, made it to Joburg and the guys dragged me to the hunting expo. WOW. What a show.
For some reason I can't attach photos via the phone right now. If the smart guy shows up, maybe we'll ask him for help with it.
I got to handle a few Rigbys at their booth. Fine firearms.
