Next trip, I've got to make time to get to a national park to see these beauties! I got too far roped into getting more shot opportunities, and didn't try to go to see the Kruger Park. I understand I wasn't all that far away from it.

This is not in a park. I was hunting when I took these pictures! Note earlier Photo of the interference while hunting Reedbuck. :)

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.

Dear Justin
It's tough times you are going through but you are right she is in a better place now without suffering, but you will always have her in your heart & mind, live a full and glorious life knowing shes looking down at you and that one day you will be together again.
Louis
 
Justin,
My deepest condolences for your loss. Thoughts and prayers go out to you. God bless.

I'll have a go at this too.

3 Photos - one from a Chamois hunt in Austria, - on with the early morning view across the Pampas in Argentine - and one from a DIY hunt in Cameroun, one hot car and a hunter just as hot on our way back to the town after a fantastic hunt.

Does this count for entries ?

Thank you to Arc Africa Safaris and AH for this opportunity, good luck to all the entrants and may the best picture win, I'll start of with my best hunting buddy Sir Charles or if you've hunted with him Charlie. " It's exhausting work this hunting" Taken in central Namibia, client and Charlie was very happy.

This makes my heart ache. I am so so sorry to hear, Justin. She was a beauty. I have no doubt inside and out. You and your family will remain in my prayers. I only wish there were words to take even some of your pain away. You are far too young. May you feel the healing presence in the time ahead of the One who truly knows what you are enduring. ~ Christina

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.
