I knew it as I typed it. Cheers mate.
 
All,
Looking for some insight and opinion. I am returning to Africa next year for my second Buffalo/PG hunt as well as Australia for WaterBuffalo. I have a O/U 9.3X74r I used on my first safari and am looking to upgrade to something bigger .375 +. I have been looking at BRNO ZK602(.375)/Sako Brown Bear/Kodiak(.375) and CZ 550 Safari or Express in .375-.404-416 range. Primary use will be Africa & Australia and big bears. My main concerns are reliability and strength. Barrel length and cosmetics are secondary. I would appreciate pros and cons on these models. Kind regards, Mike

What about a Dakota 76 in 416 remington. Still decent trajectory, more wallop then a 375, and a step up from the 9.3 your already shooting?

I would get a CZ and send it to Allan Henry on the KZN south coast. He can just smooth the action for you or do a full monty on it, new stock etc. Or anything in between. I had a serious look at some of the work he’s done to CZ’s and was thinking of getting one but decided to go for a Heym instead.
 
I picked up a Husqvarna 9.3x62 Mauser type action. Nice wood, smooth action, good bore. Gonna load it for buffs, will give feedback one day. Now to wait for license...

Hallo, ein Freund von mir lebt auf einer Farm in den Rocky Mountains.
Leider kam es dort in den letzten Wochen zu Bränden.
Hoffe es geht dir gut!?
