Does anybody have experience hunting with the .450 bushmaster in Africa?

Good pig caliber....forget about it for Africa.....
 
That's considerably less case than a 458 WM, which is the starting line of African DG hunting. Then, the unsuitable bullet availability (too low M, SD, V, ME.) Likely fun for hogs using ARs in choppers! lol I believe it has a small cult fanbase in places like OH where only straightwall centerfires are legal (for deer.) It's as if a corporate committee was assembled, and they sat around the table...."how can we get something with a big number (.450) into the hands of people that desire something with a big number, but make it profitable for us?" Introducing: The .452-30-30! In mfg., it's ALL about using LESS today! And, from the factories I tour for work, it's also ALL about using less Americans in the workforce. DEI's only documented attribute is that it slows down Natural Selection. LOL

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
