More than welcome! I must say I had my world rocked the other day when I touched off a round after two year absence from the game... wow is all i can say. But I got a handle on it and left it at that! Don't remember it being quite so spicy!!! But it puts the smack down in china town!

There is also alot of pie in the sky. I have a very good friend that has hunted quite a few elephant with me. Started out with 416 then 470 then 500 and now has a 577 and 600. He uses his 600 and he shoots it extremely well! Its a side lock Perugini & Visini it handles like a dream and fits him...

Red Leg, I know the owner of that particular .425. It will indeed be used on DG! With permission I'll post photos of it on a hunt.

Great write up and well done all round. You see Thor, Land Rovers are good for something!

Awesome!!! Can't wait to add a couple or photos here;-)

Mike, Thanks you very much for the support, Zambia will not disappoint you! Andrew is a real ambassador to for authentic hunting and mostly conservation! Great job Andrew! Leon

300gr in swifts, tsx, North fork and GS custom in 265gr! These put the hammer down. 350's are not great for all round and your barrels twist needs to be able to stabilise them. I found they bend ...

For back-up work LOTT ALL THE WAY. Not that a WM is bad but the Lott is better!

John, Sorry about the TYPO:( meant to read side-kick or better half! Leon

Hi John, Additional days will be USD 1000.00 + 300.00 USD (Community + Conservation fess)/per day. The camp will most definitely be sick-kick friendly and so will the hunting! Vic Falls/Livingstone can be visited either on the front end of the trip or after. Leon

Okay great, in the meantime I will keep you posted! Regards Leon

Johnny, 38" is very possible. Plains game; Roan, Kudu, Zebra, bushbuck, impala, bushpig, warthog, duiker and Klipspringer. I've been told there is eland and waterbuck but I will have to verify that myself this season and if that's that case then explore the possibility of getting them on quota.

If one hunts are and with a bit luck 40" or there abouts is very possible with chance of bigger!

Johnny, Thou its difficult give a guarantee and say you will shoot a such and such buffalo. All things considered I expect a hunter to get an old bull of 36" and up. I have seen two buff over 40" in one group of twelve bulls. One of those was over 42" but not quite 44". This is without being in...

Andrew, Yes through the Park partly and Lower Lupande or through Msoro. Msoro would be quickest but the road is buggered I'm sure!

Hi Johnny, A commercial flight from Mfuwe International will cost around 450USD return and save you 8 hours total. One way trip is 280USD. Hope this helps. Regards Leon

Gordon, Sorry to hear that. A really pain in the neck and pocket when one is trying to make these type of projects work!!!! Something has got to change, hopefully the new act will have something along these lines. Are seem to be involved here in Zambia. Where do you operate? The trip ins't...

Johnny, The trip is a comfortable 7 hour trip. I will also get you a price on the commercial flight from Lusaka to Mfuwe that can cut down on the travel time. The drive from Mfuwe would be approximately 3:30.

Gordon, The distance is 530km give or take a few. 430km odd to Lusaka - Petauke. Petauke to the bottom end of the reserve is 105km on a Secondary road gravel road, actually a short-cut used to South Luangwa National Park instead of going all the way to Chipata then to Mfuwe. The Lusaka stretch...

HAHA!!! You'll have to work for your upkeep here, no slackers out in the bush and God knows there's alot of work!! Now Calm down and book a hunt!

Then scratch it!!!LOL

A few visitors at a drying spring... Most game had moved to the nearby perennial stream. Enjoy!

As far as the eye can see.. hunt and explore to your hearts content!

A well used natural spring... loads of buffalo and elephant sign...

Hi Johnny, You go with a road transfer which isn't too long nor rough besides you get to see some of the country. Its 530km, 430km on Tar. There is also an option of commercial from Lusaka to Mfuwe International and then approximate 3 hour drive into camp. If you're keen on really good...

Thanks!!!! Brickburn Thanks

Hi Gizmo, Kanzutu is most certainly wild and we intend to keep it that way! There is a possibility that Leopard will open up this year.

Hi Gordon, No need for concern on that front nor need heavy machinery thou it would be a welcome addition to any area! Just elbow grease, cutting and a bit of digging out the crossings. If you want to see what the rest holds you'll have get on two feet. If clients are not happy with good hunting...

Hi Mike, Its 7 days I'll try bold it.. Thanks Leon

It wouldn't be worth the trouble. Rather let them have their own accident when their dynamite goes off!

Norwegianwoods, I'm waiting for mine eagerly;) 460 can handle a 200 yard back up shot on a departing elephant/buffalo with a better than good chance of stopping it and vastly aiding speedy a recovery. At close range it is also awesome! From a professionals point of view I believe that we have to...

Well said Matt85

Get a 460 built by a very good rifle builder and not some hack. Wiebe, American Hunting Rifles are prime examples or get Westley Richards. You won't need a break. MagnaPort is a form of brake however its not as nasty as the rest and does not have a debilitating effect like a conventional brake...

Not a fan of the Weatherby rifle in 460 however a 460 built on a solid action, well configured stock of the appropriate weight coupled with the right ammo its devastating! A true all round backup rifle in country where one may encounter anything/circumstance. If someone is willing to learn to...

Awesome hunt, well done!

Hi all, I grew up on a farm outside Francistown Botswana. At a very young age my parents diagnosed as gun, hunting and fishing mad. It was around this time when I discovered one could do this for a living and the die was firmly cast! I'm a licensed Professional Hunter in Botswana and Tanzania...

Bert the Turtle Very good thought to keep in mind. When you touch off that shot there is going to be recoil no matter what so make it count. I've over done it in the past and had a few things I used to say to myself. Squeeze squeeze Squeeze.. or let the recoil rock you. LOL

Bluey Thanks!

Bluey, silly question- where do I find the tab to introductions and greets?

Bluey, Thanks I'll do so!

AH Veteran, Very very sound advice. Thank you Harrison E take his advice. People tend to over do things particularly in the beginning and this can have negative results. Big boomers are serious learning curve. Before you shoot - Work on your setup/stance until it becomes natural. Setup is the...
