Hello, my name is Martin and I am originally from Germany and have been living in Switzerland for 12 years. I am 35 years old, a mechatronics engineer for 18 years, a hunter for 8 years, married for 7 years and father of a 6 year old son. I hunt everywhere in Europe from foxes to red deer. From next year I would like to focus on Namibia/South Africa.
I'm a big Mauser/DWM fan, although I mostly use my Merkel Helix Speedster in everyday life. I'm looking forward to many nice conversations and reports of experiences and would be happy if one or the other could help a beginner to Africa like me with certain questions.

best regards and always
Weidmannsheil

Ah schön zu wissen, dass auch deutschsprachige hier unterwegs sind. Ich werde mir mal bei Gelegenheit deine Homepage anschauen.

Yes, believe me I know.
But now he's at an age where he can regularly accompany me hunting. And he is really fascinated by it

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!
