New Aus Member

Nice to see another new Aussie here being Dan458 but not sure if Ive spoken with you before Aussie Mal.
I've met a few of the Aussies in person including our resident taxidermist from the South East.
Hi CBH Aust.,
No mate, I don't think we have spoken before. I haven't been Active or shooting much at all the past few years for one reason and another
 
Hi all,

Hope this finds you well. I’m a long time lurker and thought it was time to get involved.
I live in South Australia where big game hunting consists mainly of red and fallow deer.
I’ve made a few trips to South Africa over the years and starting to add some hunting in on these.
One trip to the Karoo a couple of years ago unsuccessfully chasing free range Kudu in the mountains. Second trip to the Limpopo last year for some plains game then 5 days of exciting but unsuccessful Buff hunting. I’m now dreaming daily of Buff, hopefully get another chance this year.
Most of my shooting locally is with a 30-06 but I took my 9.3x62 and 458Lott to Africa.

I appreciate the no BS discussion and banter on these pages!

Cheers,
Dan

Welcome to AH Dan! Nice to have you on the site.
 
Hello Dan458,

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

When you have a spare moment, take a peep into the Khomas Safaris web site, especially our video of hunting buffalo, up in the Zambezi District / Caprivi Strip.

No matter who you book with, I suspect that you will become strangely and irreversibly addicted to buffalo hunting.

Cheers,
Velo Dog.
 
Welcome to the family and the forum @Dan458 , you are in the right place! Looking forward to you sharing your stories!

Cheers

Come on Chris you are usually More talkative than that mate.
@Dan458 welcome aboard mate us Aussies are a great mob that love to keep these Americans on their toes with our humour. Nice choice of calibres but I hope you don't own a 243.

Certainly not! From a 22LR it jumps straight to 30-06. Always, always, use enough gun!

Welcome, glad to have you here!
 
Welcome to the forum.

I am Wayne Muller from Boss Safaris and Outfitters. Our outfit is based in Limpopo, about 30 min from Phalaborwa. This area is one of the best hunting destinations in South Africa, and one of the last true areas in the country where you can hunt alongside the Big 5. In addition, we have hunting concessions in every province, where we pursue species in their natural habitat. We cater to rifle and bow hunters, and offer photographic safaris and tours to the Kruger National Park and surroundings. We are a one stop shop in the safari business.
Please feel free to visit our website for more information and thank you for your consideration. If you
have any questions about our Safaris, please send me a message or email me directly

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

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.:)

This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.
