Hello the camp

Seems like “hello the camp” is straight out of a John Wayne movie, bunch of roughnecks sitting around the evening fire sharing sundowners-which puts you in good company since that is every evening during safari! Welcome to the camp sir.
 
Hello Ravensview,

Khomas Highland Hunting Safaris of Namibia, welcomes you to the greatest forum on earth.

Your 7x57 is a classic African cartridge.

Likewise, blue steel and walnut are typical of Africa even today.

Best regards,
Velo Dog.
 
Welcome aboard Ravensview. I too am from Michigan, but down in the Southeast corner. Actually an island between the U.S. and Canada at the mouth of the Detroit River. Have you ever thought of hunting Africa? A guided Plains game hunt there is about the same a guided Elk hunt out West but you are all but guaranteed to get all of the animals in your "package." Take a look at the deals and offers for next year. Stick with the outfitter/ sponsors of AH. These guys are vetted on an almost daily basis. They cannot afford to deliver a hunt that doesn't measure up to your expectations. One thing for sure, stick around here for a while and you will discover that you need a rifle with a bit more "horsepower." Don't worry, we'll help you pick it out, as well as the ones after that. ;);)
I have had dreams of hunting Africa since I was a wee lad, my uncle had a signed picture from Fred Bear with a downed elephant hanging on the wall behind his desk, I had a couple of friends that I went to College with who were from grosse ile, a few duck hunts down that way, biggest gun I have right now is a custom built sharps in 45/90, but have dreamed of a .375 H&H for a long time.

Thanks, always announce yourself when entering somebody’s camp, and you are right I am a fan of John Wayne.

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to get in contact with Mr Butch Searcy. I have the opportunity to buy one of his rifles chambered in 577 nitro Express however the seller does not have any of the paperwork with the information about what ammunition or bullet weight was used to regulate it. I know he is not making firearms anymore but I wanted to reach out after seeing one of your post about him.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl

Hey Steve, This is Steve Washington we met at KMG last year. I am interested in your Winchester. Would love to speak with you about it. I work third shift and I cannot take a phone with me to work. Let me know a good time to call during one of your mornings. My phone is [redacted]. Live in Florida so I have to account for the time difference.
Look forward to hearing from you.
