Welcome and I know you. I was over "there" for many years posting as Yukon Delta when I lived in Alaska and first started hunting in Africa. That forum is ok...this place is better!

Once I found this forum and interacted with a few of the members, I'll not be going to the others any longer.
Great people here.

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.

Peterson .280AI brass, CCI 200 primers, 56.5gr of 4831SC, 184gr Berger Hybrid.

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.
