Great Practice Target For Buffalo Hunting

No matter how fancy or simple a paper target may be, it is 2 dimensional. For hunting shot placement and bullet track on any big game, you have to think in 3 dimensions. For buffalo or large animal practice, I just use a plain, large black bull on a paper target or a large paper plate, spray painted black, on a piece of cardboard. I practice from about 25 yards to no more than about 100.
Yes you really need to think of the track of the bullet, the whole way through.
For @DSJR I have to take my hat off to you and your son for going on what I expect is the very first in a headless cape buff hunt :ROFLMAO: :A Stirring:(y)saves on them trophy impo fees eh(y)
But in all seriousness great idea and love those targets!

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?
