African Greetings

Joco, even though we've never met, we have a number of things in common. I have two 404(s) and three 375 H&H(s). My first African hunt was with Cruiser Safaris in the Limpopo Province near Thabazimbi. My two sons have been hunting with me for over 40 years. Now the grandsons have joined us. I get to do all of the reloading. The 6.5 X 55 Swedish Mauser is my go-to rifle for deer sized game. Your lion hunt sounds interesting, how about posting a more detailed hunting report with photos?

Wow ... seriously considering swapping my 6.5CM for a 6.5Swede, like the history
404 a long time dream, now in process.
My "bush rifle" for warthog & impala belonged to my grandfather. It is an old Lee Enfield Mk4 No1 303.
Lion hunt report will follow.
Cheers

Namibia on my list...
That’s excellent Jaco,

Khomas Highland Hunting Safaris of Namibia is ready when you are.
Also, when you can spare a moment, have a peep at our web site, especially our videos.

Obviously, Khomas Safaris is my Number One recommendation - no surprise there.
Whether or not you decide to hunt Namibia with Khomas, indeed do book with someone in Namibia one of these years.
Although I live on the opposite side (and the opposite end as well) of the planet nonetheless, Namibia is my is my “Land of The Dreamtime”.

Cheers,
Paul.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
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!
