New Here looking to get into hunting Africa

[Velo Dog]

Greetings Dublinpiper90,

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

When you get around to it, let us know a bit about yourself.
Also, I invite you to have a look into the Khomas Safaris website.

Last but not least, the .375 H&H is my favorite hunting cartridge.
But having said that, the advice EXECUTIVE HUNT AFRICA is excellent.
I recommend you consider that advice as the beginnings of your planning toward a first visit to Africa.

Best Regards,
Velo Dog.

Good afternoon, I’ve been looking into someday going on safari and taking game that Africa homes, I’ve also been looking into a starter rifle so I can start getting a custom to and learning how to handle and use the rifle correctly. I’ve never fired a Dangerous game rifle, I’ve had lots of experience with a .300 wsm 12ga 3.5 turkey loads which I feel like has a decent amount of recoil, I’ve look at the Winchester model 70 .375 HH and the CZ 550 in the same caliber and the .416 Rigby, I definitely want to ask people in the know about this, also my apologies if this the incorrect place to ask the question.
Thanks in advance

Get a .375 and get started!

Good day @Dublinpiper90 welcome aboard. Your 300 will het the job done on all plains game. Should you want a big boar grab that 375, they are comfortable shooting and will kill anything Africa can throw at you

My personal best

Welcome to AH. YES 375 H&H is an allrounder for Africa. If you dont get it now you will get it eventually . So why wait. If you plan on hunting in Africa more times you will for sure get other calibers. Start with the 375 H*H.
