John Alexander Hunter "White Hunter"

All so interesting and wish I had a time machine! Colonial Africa at the turn of the century with such fine firearms too..Send me back with a Holland 500 Double or better yet 577 or 600...
I am not much of a reader now but which of his books would you Gents recommend to be the best ?[emoji208][emoji208]
Hunter (1952). A true classic.
 
Great read! my first choice in my book shelf to recomend Africana reading to friends
 
He is a very special person to me because he ignited my passion for Africa.
One day while in elementary school, I found "Hunter" in the bookmobile that used to visit our school....That started it all

I have an original copy of Hunter from 1952
I have just finished shunted by J. A. Hunter. What an incredible classic. @kevinpeacock should add it to our list given the excellent writing. I was very impressed with it and recommend it highly!!!

I agree and I can't believe that it isn't there already

To me that book and Death in the Long Grass are the best written and started it all for me

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike
