Thank you all for the welcome. I now find myself on this forum every day. So much information to absorb.
 
Welcome to AH from another DFW "local"!

I've never hunted with Dumukwa, but as luck would have it, wound up sharing a fishing camp with Bertus(owner) in Mozambique 11-12 years ago. They seem like they run a nice operation and I'm sure you'll have a great time!

Good luck on your trip!

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.:)

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
