Hi everyone,

I'm planning my first plains game hunt and this site seems like a wonderful resource. I'm sure I'll have questions for the group as the planning progresses. I've hunted extensively in the US but have never hunted internationally. I'm looking forward to Africa.

By the way, I'm picking up later today a Mauser m12 in 9,3x62 that I ordered. Seems like a fitting and historical caliber for a journey to Africa.
 
Welcome to AH.

You have found a great resource.

That new rifle will be fitting. Happy planning.
 
Welcome to AH Bonedoc! Enjoy the planning process and fire away any question that you may have...
 
Welcome to AH, Bonedoc, that s a fine gun !
 
Welcometo AH Bonedoc, post a picture of your gun, when you receive it.
 
Welcome to AH. Once you go you will wonder why you didn't go sooner.
 
:welcome::welcome::welcome:

If you can't live in Texas, Tennessee is the place to be. :D
 
Welcome to AH!

As you prepare for your hunt, do not forget to consider the importance of medical evacuation coverage. I would be more than happy to answer any questions as they come up.

Best of luck in your preparations.

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!
