New member keen to learn. Have been hunting for a long time. Went to SA chasing Plains game 18 years ago. Hopefully getting to Mozambique next year if the virus allows. Have bought a 404J to chase Cape Buff. Looking for advice from those with first hand experience.
 
Welcome STD! Never thought I would ever say that ;). Glad you found us!
 
Good luck with your hunt in Moz.
Welcome to AH.
 
STD, welcome to the AH forum! Lots of you Aussies on here! Mozambique is a dream hunt of mine. Best of luck having a Moz adventure! Please write us a report and throw in some pictures!
 
Welcome aboard!

Hello from a fellow Queenslander that, 404 is going to be expensive to run. ;)
 
Why do you say that? I don't think I will be rattling off hundreds of rounds a week.
I have seen the cost of brass dies & projectiles for the 404 J, but really i would love one my self please do not take offense, i am just joking with you i am building a 9.3x62 as a more affordable option.

Talk to Anthony George on messenger before you commit. Very reasonable prices.

@STD
Welcome aboard to the best forum around mate from a new south welshman.
Not being a smartarse but I would change my initials from STD or be prepared to be shit stirred.
I notice you are from QLD, there are a few great members from up there like @rdog, @Rule 303 and @Dr Ray.
All good blokes, you have to watch some of the mericans tho they will try and lead you down the path of the double or the Blaser R8 and before you know it your hooked.
Once again welcome aboard mate.
Bob

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!
