Hello from West Virginia!

Congrats and welcome to AH!
 
Wheels up in 5 weeks! I have been reading this awesome forum for a couple years. Love your stories and insights. I’ll be sure to post a report when we return.
Good luck on your hunt!
 
Mountaineer, welcome to the AH forum! I’m looking forward to your report. You’re going to have a grand adventure I’m certain!
 
Okay Shootest43, here are the details. I’ll be leaving out of Dulles in route to Namibia on Ethiopian Airlines. Going to be hunting in the Khomas Highlands with Phillip. We plan to hunt kudu, zebra, red hartebeest, oryx, warthog, blue and black wildebeest and jackal. Kids just bought me a tactacam 5.0 for Father’s Day. Anyone ever use one on a medium sized cartridge? Not sure it will not hit me in the eye. It takes up over two inches of the eye relief. I also still need to buy medical and evacuation insurance so if you have had positive results with a company that would be good advice to have also. Thanks!
 
Welcome to the forum. I am also a WV guy. Not enough African hunters in the state to BS with. I bowhunted Namibia in 2019 and had a blast. Planning a South Africa Cape Buffalo hunt for 2023. Any questions feel free to message me.
 
Welcome to AH, I hope you have a great trip!

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
