    Remington 798 375 H&H

    My preferences: Winchester 70, pre 64. This is my favorite bolt ever. Ruger CZ. I am reading the prices for the Winchester 70 in USA, and here in Spain the price increases more than 100%. Winchester 70 safari express: 2200 $.

    Which rifle for lion?

    My short experience: a lioness in the Kalahari, last june. Tracking as you want to do yours. Hunted with a 375 bolt action with small magnification scope. Distance, less than 25 yards. 300 gr. soft bullet PMP. Fortunately, only one shot was enough! If I had to repeat, I would take my 375. My PH...

    Tony Sanchez-Arino A Great Professional Hunter

    Yes! Tony is a legend here in Spain. I met him in Jerez, my hometown. A true hunter and a gentleman of the old school, as Nyati said. He has just written another book "Hic sunt leones", about hunting lions. I think it has not been translated into english yet.

    Would you value a record trophy more than an unusual trophy?

    As Red Leg told, I prefer age over inches. I am not a collector of trophies, but a collector of memories, and that kind of unusual trophies bring very good memories. This is an old gemsbuck hunted with Spitskop Safaris in Kimberley. The day before we hunted a very good bull, and we saw this...

    Do I need gaiters for a South African hunt in September?

    Take your gaiters with you! I have just arrived from Northern Cape, and I bought one made of canvas by Rogue, at a hunting shop in Kimberley. I paid over 120 Rands. There are others made of leather, more expensive of course. And Sniper of Africa has some models also. Jose

    7x57 Owners....educate me

    I am not an expert in energy, grains or velocity. I did my first safari with a 7x57 musgrave, that I hired at the lodge. I took kudu, impala, blesbok, steenbok and seven wharthogs. I was really surprised with that caliber, very good penetration and limited recoil. We took the bullet of the kudu...

    where to go for really big gemsbok?

    You have to be proud of that 40,5" buck. I have seen very very good gemsboks in the Kimberley area of SA (Northern Cape). I took a 43 " female last year.
