Awesome photo and great horns on that reedbuck. Did you get him?

As a matter of fact, yes I did. Only after a little interference though.

What is that?

As AH is for real people...

This competition is dedicated to the loving memory of my wife, who sadly passed away on Saturday after a two year fight against Cancer.

I will miss her terribly but I know that she is in a better place, free of pain and any suffering.

Sorry for putting a sad note to this happy occasion but I think that it is a fitting tribute to my best friend and partner.
 
Justin, an amazing photo of a beautiful subject.
An excellent, fitting tribute to the memory of your wife.


I am deeply sorry for your loss.

Justin, I don't think that I can fully comprehend what you have gone through and what it must be to lose your loved one. Please accept my sincere condolences, Jerome
 
My thoughts are with you and your family.
 
Sad to hear about your terrible loss, Justin, my most sincere condolences.
 
So sorry to hear of this, My thoughts and prayers are with You and your Family, Your picture of your lovely wife would get my vote. A friend gave me an item one time that I found a lot of light in, inscribed was: Rejoice in our suffering, suffering produces perseverance, perseverance-character and character hope....

Sorry for your loss sir. I don't know you but I know the pain people feel from the losses of this terrible terrible disease. My thoughts are with you and yours.
 
I am truly sorry for your loss. I'm sure she was a real gem. Thank you for the tribute and the opportunity. I, too, would pick her picture for the win.

Just missed his face because the digicam couldn't decide what type of scenery it was.

Captured his face not five minutes later!

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci
Philippe

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
