ZAMBIA: Upper Luangwa River - Mwanya Fly Camp - First Safari

Congrats on the critters, especially the buffalo.
 
Day four and five were full of awesome adventure and several stalks on buffalo and a stalk on kudu but neither panned out. We bumped into my old lone buffalo on day five and he gave us the slip, and once again he gave us the slip on day six. But i did get a nice waterbuck that we earned the hard way. Waterbuck are much bigger than I thought, and don't give up easily. The 9.3x62 did its job, albeit with more effort that expected on a less than perfect quartering to angle from 160 yards.

Below is a pic of the waterbuck I got on day six.

Thank you for sharing. Looking forward to hunting Upper Lupande this fall. Under 100 days!

Did you enjoy your black powder buffalo hunt?
Any report about the hunt here on African Hunting .com?

Not sure your price range. Have a 375 H&H with a muzzle brake. Nice rifle only fired a few times. Also a Mossberg 375 Ruger its been used and shows a few hunts on it.
