Hello each and every one,

This forum looked to be a good place to keep up on bargain prices for African hunting and fishing.
Not being a tape measure / trophy book type person, I hope to periodically run across affordable non-trophy type hunts, tusk less or cow and/or management bull elephant, cow buffalo, broken horn buffalo, various antelope species culling, and such likes, within this forum.
Likewise, I am always eager to learn what others have to say about Africa.
Been there 4 times but have only become more addicted.
Still a beginner, definitely.
Cannot afford to go very often but every 3 or 4 years I sometimes manage to save up enough to go again.
Thank you all in advance, for answering the questions I will ask and the jabbering that I will answer some of yours with.

I spent most of my life savings on Mausers and hunting trips, the rest I just wasted.

Keep Well,
Ard

Welcome to AH, Ard!
 
Looking forward to the jabber.

Welcome to AH.

Got any stories or reports you want to share??
 
Welcome to AH Ard you are going to enjoy the forum!
 
Stories?

Thanks and yes, I have stories.
However, nothing too fantastic, no shootouts with poachers or a lion's savage charge stopped in mid-air, etc, etc., just fairly typical hunting & fishing yarns.
At the moment, I am swamped at work and home, therefore, I won't be able to type epic novels, until I get caught up one of these days.
But, I do look forward to tapping in to this forum now and again.
 
Thanks and I look forward to it.
 
Thanks, and I agree with you.
 
Thank you.
 
Thanks and I look forward to learning much from this forum.
 
Welcome Velo Dog from a fellow Alaskan (Fairbanks). Just got on here myself and there is lots of info to be had.

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!
