Howdy

G’day y’all.

English is not my first language so I mix and match wildly as you can see.

Anyhoo,newbie here with zero experience of hunting in Africa.

Unlike most,it seems,it’s never been a dream of mine to hunt there,but I might tag along with a friend.

I do find the calibers and guns associated with hunting in Africa interesting though.

While I have not seen one in real life,oryx seems to be the most beautiful animal there.To my eyes.

The Warthog is anything but,but it is an animal I’d like to hunt,along with croc.

And ostrich.

One friend mentioned that he wants to hunt in Namibia,so I’ve been on an internet spree to learn about the country,it’s history,animals and hunting there.

Guess that’s about it for now,stupid questions to follow later.

Strausser, welcome to the AH forum! You should definitely take the animals you mentioned. My croc hunt was one of my favorite trips. IMO, no other Africa species requires a more accurate shot placement.
Best of luck in your research!
 
Welcome to AH, @Strausser. Let us know if you need any assistance with the rifle import permits, we would be glad to assist you with that.

Thank you all.
Added two more animals I need to learn more about,porcupine and honey badger.
I’ve no idea how people chose their quarry,so for now I just read up about those I find interesting.

Is this rifle sold? If not what is the weight of it and do you know if there is enough difference in diameter between the 35W and the 9.3 to allow for a rebore to a 9.3x62 which is what I am after?
Thanks,
Gary (Just down the road in Springfield)

Forgive me if this is the incorrect area, I signed up to this forum just now because I wanted to be on the list to purchase a copy of your autobiography. Please feel free to pass my information along to whomever is selling. Thank you so much. I look forward to it!
I like the Tillie in my picture. They are supposed to fit loose (2 fingers inside hat band), have mesh for cooling, and hold their shape after washing.
