New from Illinois

Welcome to AH!!
 
Welcome to AH buckbull, what rifles do you have?
Nothing too interesting.

Weatherby Vanguard Sub-MOA in .338 winchester magnum
Tikka T3 Hunter in .300 winchester magnum
CVA Scout 2 in .350 Legend (straight wall only for whitetail deer hunting in Illinois)
Weatherby Vanguard Sub-MOA in .30-06
Remington 7600 in .30-06

Of those, I prefer the Tikka.
 
Welcome to AH! I've hunted with @JimP in Africa. He's a legend...... in his own mind. LOL
 
Hello buckbull,

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

When you have a spare moment, take a look into the Khomas Safaris web site.
Hopefully it will further enhance your dreams of Africa.

Best Regards,
Velo Dog.
 
This forum came highly recommended by JimP so I thought I would check it out. I'm a dreamer at this point; but with both kids away at college I'm finding myself with more time to pursue hunting adventures. Looking forward to learning about African hunting with aspirations to go in a few years.
Welcome to the forum. You have come to the right place to learn about hunting in Africa. But reading stuff here will soon have you wanting to be more than a dreamer. Happy adventures! Sue Tidwell
 
Welcome aboard!

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.:)

2,822fps, ES 8.2
This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.
