I’ll echo the above. I’ve killed 3 eland with a 7 SAUM. Pretty much same ballistics as the PRC. 3 kudu, a couple of Gemsbuck, a zebra, a blue and black wildebeest plus another 2 dozen plains game animals. Some with a 7 mag with 160 gr Accubonds. Most tho with a 180 gr Berger. Your PRC will do a...

Likely get several recommendations here but if not go over to the Texas hunting forum and look in their exotics forum. It has a few hunt reports but several requests like yours. The answers there should get you going. Bruce

I was also thinking 8-9 yrs old. Still fairly pointy tips on horns. Still has the majority of its hair. Face not showing any white on it. I’ve only killed 2 buffalo so I’m not a pro. Bruce

Binoculars can be added to a form 4457 in the USA along with the rifle and the scope.... No idea for other countries. Wonderful report like always. I always appreciate your candor about any mistakes. You took some fine trophies. Congrats on getting them. Bruce

Nice bushbuck! Congrats on hanging in there. Seems like a rough hunt. Some nice trophies for your efforts tho. Bruce

You started off pretty early in life! Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to more. Wish I could of started my African hunting sooner. Good job. Bruce

That is starting them young. Good job on making it work. Love to see more pictures and read about some of your stalks. Bruce

Welcome to AH from another Wy member. Congrats on your first safari. Would love to hear more details about your hunt. Pictures are always good to see. That african bug is a tough one. I've been 9 times so far...... Bruce

I did not, but I was under the impression that someone on another forum did get some. I also saw a notice that some Fed 215's had been in stock at another online retailer. They were gone very quickly apparently. Primers don't seem to last long....... At least we're starting to see some show up...

I appreciate your report. Always good to hear that someone has had a good hunt. Would love to hear more details about stalks. Did you hunt more than the 2 animals pictured? If so then more pictures would be great. Congrats! Bruce

Powder Valley has Fed 210 large rifle primers in stock right now. Bruce

Meopta seems to be doing a good job. They are developing a good reputation on some other forums that I'm on. Bruce

Great job! Congrats! Where’s the pics? Bruce

Like was mentioned by others, you took some nice trophies. I went to africa and especially on my first trip shot a couple of animals that are not trophies. Really shouldn't have been targeted at that point. Your's are good solid trophy animals. Congrats and thanks for sharing. Bruce

Leopards are tough. Sorry to hear this. Wishing him a full and speedy recovery! Bruce
