hi all,
probably a simple question but we are traveling to SA and i'm taking a 300WSM and 30-06. (left handed) the question..... can i carry both in the same case under my name. everwhere i see it says no two guns of the same Caliber. To my mind they are both 30 caliber (reloader in me) and different gauges.. will i have any trouble.? can anybody shed a little light on this for me.

thanks, PALefty
 
Should be no issue...just remember which baggage claim tickets belongs to the rifle case...
and which one for the Ammo...

have a great time...
 
Look forward to the hunt report.

Just try and put that 300 WSM into that 3006 and see how it goes for you.
The SAPS will know the difference. :)
 
It is my understanding that they actually mean Cartridge and not caliber.
 
With the wording I have wondered the same thing.

Shoot Anne at Hunter Support an email and I am sure she will have a definitive answer for you. They have a gun import and permitting service that is perfect for the first time hunter or anyone with a short layover in Joberg.

SAPS will look at the cartridge designation. Whatever is stamped on your barrel.

Hi Paul,
This is Daniel from Mankazana Safaris.

I saw your post regarding a hunt in Africa. I am sure you have been bombarded with messages and replies from other outfitters, so I will keep this one quick.
I have a feeling we have exactly what you need for a first safari.
If you'd like to hear more, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Yours sincerely,

If you ever decide to sell this rifle, I will buy it with the dies, bullet, brass, the works. Dan
