This is the result of what happens when wild life (in this case, the elephant population) isn't correctly managed and everything is left in the hands of the government and green conservationists.

That’s really disturbing to see. It’s sad how emotions get in the way of any type of management for elephants. Culling is unfortunately necessary but most people can’t accept it.
 
This what is happening in various parks here
It is very sad yet easily solvable

The government keeps trying to clamp down on private operators to put checks and balances in place but cant even manage their own reserves at all!!!

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
