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

Thanks !! Very happy with my bull. It was definitely dry in the early October time frame I was there. Lots of dust and some smoke from fires on the flood plains. We had no shortage of buffalo however, at least in Wuparo. We saw may herds of 100+ animals. Which conservancy will you be hunting ?

LIMPOPO NORTH SAFARIS
Due to the ongoing drought in Namibia which is severely affecting landowners and Hunting outfitters alike. Some of my acquaintances informed me they did culling to lower buffalo numbers and try and minimize the effect of the drought and demand for grazing, @roklok how was the condition of the animals in the are you hunted
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.:)
*PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS FOR MY RIFLE, ALWAYS APPROACH A NEW LOAD CAUTIOUSLY!!*
Rifle is a Pierce long action, 32" 1:8.5 twist Swan{Au} barrel
{You will want a 1:8.5 to run the heavies but can get away with a 1:9}
Peterson .280AI brass, CCI 200 primers, 56.5gr of 4831SC, 184gr Berger Hybrid.
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.
Have twice tried to post something that your site canned as "SPAM" or some problem.. "Contact the Administrator"... Not sure why even the "Contact" button would not send my comment so you only received my query but not the content in question. I'll see if I can get it to you this way... NOPE I use a VPN and perhaps that is causing me grief...

Hi, make sure you have your reservation for sun road, in Glacier.
One thing that could give an issue is Montana can be very smokey during that time, so just keep that in mind.
Bozeman has a very nice hot spring, its more modern, Norris hot springs a little more rustic.
Everything you mentioned is a great start.
Good Morning,

May I ask you to give me your comments; do I forget something ? are my choices worthy ? Thank you in advance

that one is not mine specifically but i had a 1978 until recently:D I spent a ridiculous amount of time under that car. 1jz swap, suspension, full wiring harness from scratch - the works. Ended up being too much car for me so I sold it on, next car will be a z06. here's a picture of mine. It's a miracle that car never put me in jail.

Hi, mine is a 75 :) Imported from US (Costa Mesa) to Norway in 2006. It took me 15 years to fully rebuild. Stripped to bare metal, welded, flat top pistons, Rebello head, Holley carb, LSD, poly bushings, big calipers front, maxima discs rear. Fixed the AC. Fantastic car.
Hi Jay,

Hope you're well.

I'm headed your way in January.

Attending SHOT Show has been a long time bucket list item for me.

Finally made it happen and I'm headed to Vegas.

I know you're some distance from Vegas - but would be keen to catch up if it works out.

Have a good one.

Mark
