Australian's language is, shall we say, colorful! The f word is so commonly used (by both males & females), it's ... like ...uhmmm, "normal".
I hear it everyday from people.

I take for granted how liberal we are with language until I meet people from other countries!
We don't walk around restaurants or formal occasions dropping f bombs everywhere but in daily life with mates its pretty big.
If i didn't call my mate a see you en tee or vice versa at least once during a catchup at the pub or at a bbq you'd be wondering what's wrong with the bugger.
Ironically, the word fanny has a very different meaning in Australia and is rarely used.
And there's some urbanites that argue Australia has no culture!

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.

2,822fps, ES 8.2
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.
