This is a teaser. We just got back home about an hour ago, will post the full Monty tomorrow after I get a little sleep.
I got a Burchell's that's gonna make most of you guys green with envy. It's BLACK. The 9.3x62 with 286 gr A Frames performed like a champ on my cape buffalo cow, blue wildebeest, and zebra - all 1 shot kills, with the longest tracking job about 75 yards. Likewise with the 160 gr Woodleigh Weldcores out of my 6.5x55 on blesbok, impala, and warthog. I'm going to include pictures of my best friend's animals, too. He shot a gorgeous tri-color blesbok.
For those still waiting to pull the trigger on going, book it - the inflation we've been feeling in the US the last couple years is affecting outfitters' abilities to retain concessions. My best friend came with me because he lost a bet. He HATES Africa (does lots of business in Nigeria, EG, Cameroon, and Algeria).
"OK, I'm honoring the bet and going, but I'm not doing any taxidermy, only pictures." That lasted until he shot his first animal, a blue wildebeest. By his 5th day, he was already re-booking for next July. @Limcroma Safaris is absolutely stellar.
There is nothing like an African sunset. That's Venus in the top dead center.
