Hello ,
I have joined this online forum today . I was in fact introduced to this website by forum member ,@Major Khan who is my close friend , compatriot and former commanding officer during the Bangladesh War Of Independence in 1971 .
Major khan very kindly narrated one of my hunting stories on AH ( African Hunting ) forums last week , which can be found here .
https://www.africahunting.com/threads/in-pursuit-of-the-fabled-black-panther.55807/
He also encouraged me to join this online forum .
I am a passionate lover of the Majestic art of hunting ( or “ Shikar “ as it is called here , in Bangladesh ) .
Although I certainly enjoy hunting ( and do hunt ) most species legally available for Shikar in Bangladesh , my No. 1 favorite mammalian species to hunt in my country would have to be the Axis Deer ( Known in Bangladesh , as the Chital ) . Among birds , my No. 1 favorite upland species to hunt , would have to be the green Harial pigeon and my No.1 favorite waterfowl species to hunt , would have to be greylag geese .
My experience with dangerous game is limited to only 25 man eating Hunting Leopards and half a dozen Asian Sloth Bears , which I personally consider to be quite unremarkable .
My dream is to hunt in South Africa next year with my grandchildren ( preferably Namibia ) . My dream African species to hunt for my first time to Africa , would have to be the following :
* Cape Buffalo
* Eland
* Impala
* Sable
* Tiny Ten
Bagging an elephant or an African lion are also quite desirable to me , somewhere down the line . However to me , my very first African dangerous game species MUST be a Cape Buffalo .
My No. 1 favorite rifle calibre of all time is hands down , the 7 millimeter Remington Magnum .
My No. 1 favorite shotgun maker of all time , is William Wellington Greener .
My No. 1 favorite factory loaded ammunition , would have to be the Remington Core Lokt soft nose cartridges.
MY No. 1 favorite bullets for hand loading , would have to be Barnes TSX soft nose bullets .
Some of the calibres which I have used over the last 55 years for Shikar include , but are not limited to :
* .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire
* 7 millimeter Remington Magnum
* .375 Holland and Holland Magnum
* 12 Bore
* .303 Military Ball ( for two legged quarry during war time only )
I hope that I can learn a great deal from this group of passionate hunters from all over the world . I also hope to share a couple of my stories of pursuing man eating Hunting Leopards over the years .
With very best wishes ,
Panther Shooter
