Just got back from Texas on a freezer filler whitetail hunt, I ended up taking 2 smaller management bucks to fill my freezer, I used my sako AV 375 h&h with 275 gr cutting edge safari raptor bullets as a little science experiment and noticed I had far less meat damage with the 375 vs my other "appropriate" deer rifles so I believe I may have a new deer rifle

That would be an East Tex Muygrande...
 
Was this a paid hunt or your farm? Well done. I've been thinking about using the 375 H&H as well. We have some big hogs here in GA, and would like to try it out. :)
 
Interesting about the .375 on whitetails. I have also taken a couple of deer with my .375 H&H, using the same 300 grain A-Frames that I used in Africa. (This was partly an experiment, but also because my favorite .270 was being re-bedded in its stock at the time.) Like you, I found that the .375 did much less meat damage than my "regular deer rifle." I'm not planning on turning it into my go-to deer rifle, though.
 
Good job! Where abouts in Texas?

I went to a friends ranch in La Salle County (south Texas) last weeked and had a good deer hunt too and filled the freezer.
 
We hunted a few different counties (hood,brown,Throckmorton and hill) all central
 
Congrats and good job. Looks like a lot of good eating.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John buzzardhilllabs@hotmail.com

Out of all the different color variations of Impala the black Impala just stands out with its beautiful pitch black hide.

Impala is one of the animals you will see all over Africa.
You can see them in herds of a 100 plus together.

This excellent ram was taken with one of our previous client this past season.
