Tanzania

Have a great time. I look forward to seeing your report.
 
Pulling the popcorn out and getting ready for the ride. Shoot straight and take tons of pics!

Have fun, look forward to the report!
 
People or animals or both, Kevin?
People and their cows and goats. I spent time on a mining project north of Mwanza and the main tar road was the boundary between the Serengetti on the right and the rural farms on the left. You looked right and saw zebra and wildebeest and left and saw cattle and goats and there seemed to be no mixing at all, incredible. No fences. If that holds true in the hunting safari areas it is good news.
 
Mike have fun and enjoy every second. Looking forward to hearing about your safari. safe Travels

I am assured that the Lukwati area has very low population of people. Fly country and a reserve.
Good luck, Mike - hope you're taking the 404!
YES! This is why I had it built. Thank you for helping me sort out the loads during development. I've been shooting the 404 off sticks almost daily and it is deadly accurate.
 
Great tsetse fly country! By the way the sable in my photo was taken there

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
