Being a long time lurker here and come to the insight, that if you want the best this is it.
My interest has always been african hunting but, there always semes to be something comes inbetween.
My other interest is Rifles and a preferens to big bores, some what failing as I grow older!
I hope that all of you can forgive me for my lousy english.

Welcome to AH From Sweden!
 
Welcome aboard Mvh Peter. You are most certainly correct in thinking / understanding that AH is the best site for guys and gals interested in hunting Africa, big bore rifles and shooting in general. What have you hunted in Sweden? What caliber rifles do you own? Please don't worry about your English, it will not be critiqued or criticized.
 
Shootist 43,thank you sir.
I live in the southern part of Sweden, and down here the most common species to be hunted is Wildbore, that hawe had an explosion in numbers the 30 odd years I've been hunting.
Other game that I hunt is Rodeer Fox some Fallowdeer and occasionally Moose, that has dropped in number's since I started hunting.
Caliber wise I used to own 6,5 swede and own 22lr 22-250 308 30-06 9,3/57 375hh that I have owned a few of and finally a 505 Gibbs. And of course a shotgun that I can't hit anything with!
Another big interest is reloading, something that is absolutely necessary in Sweden if you own something little bigger, ammo prices is really high here (I think that a few years back a factory load for a Gibbs went for roughly 25 dollars.)

Best regards Peter

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
