I hunted more than 40 years in Europe and in Africa too.
Collecting Mannlicher Schoenauers , from M 1903 to post-WWII - GK, is my hobby .
Doing also some reloading from .17 Rem to 458 WM, but especially the old Europaen
catridges , like 6,4x54 MS, 8x56 MS, 9,3x72 R and others. My favourite gun for Africa
is my Steyr Prohunter in .376 Steyr, not often found ....
So I hope to find some pleasure here !

Kind regards

MS

Welcome to AH, Mannlicher. Where in Austria do you hail from? Our oldest son lived in your country two years, the first in Linz and then in Vienna. We made a trip over to visit at Christmas time two years ago and saw the new year in while there. We visited Linz, Salzburg and Innsbruck. Very beautiful country.

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!
